Book Review: The Beautiful Fall

I love reading, however, I haven't had much of a chance to read for fun. I got this book as a gift from my sister, who knows that I love fashion. This book, called The Beautiful Fall, is a wonderful account of the life of Yves Saint Laurent, the man behind YSL. His life was glamorous, rich, troubled, and a bit strange...all things that you would expect in fashion. His friends turn into rivals and create a rift in the industry, all while trying to climb the social ladder and make beautiful collections. This book delves into the man behind the magic and what it's really like to be a fashion designer. It also talks about the culture and the careers of other industry stars. If you really want to know about how a designer turns a brand into a powerhouse, then this will definitely provide an inside look. It's well written and very informative without being textbook like. If you are looking for a different read, this would be a great one to read. After you read it, come back and let me know what you think about it. So cozy up and enjoy!
