The Ultimate Fashion and Grooming Guide for Men
Rating (5)
Date: 2006-07-26
If your quest is to discover the secrets of true personal style, you will find plenty of answers in this book. Style is not only about clothing, is a mix of how you comb your hair, whether you grow a beard, how you care for your nails, what kind of aftershave or cologne you wear, how you react under pressure, whether you convey confidence, whether you merely walk into a room or make an entrance. Everything is important and this book can help you create your own personal style.
This book will be your personal image consultant.

Outstanding summary for the Modern Man

What a great book. After reading this book I feel like I want to just throw away all of my clothes and start fresh. It is a fun and noteworthy read. Enjoyable and lavishly illustrated. I really found this a wonderful book. It is not the kind of book that you would read in one sitting, but rather a book that you will refer to throughout your life. If you are a Cary Grant wanna-be this book is for you.

Disappointing Collection of Useless Quotes from "Experts"

This books contains the basic information on style and fashion, but it is more a collection of quotes from various "experts." If you know nothing about fashion, grooming, etc, this book would be useful. But if you want to go beyond matching your T-shirt and jeans, then you should read something by Alan Flusser. Overall I was disappointed.

Men are not big into self help. Maybe there is a guy out there that could get a promotion, a date with the apple of his eye, or you but his clothes and grooming are not going to cut it.
This is the clue he has been waiting for.
This book covers it all. The fasion do's and don'ts. It covers formal dressing as well as casual attire.
Grooming and hygene are covered which may be a blessing if you are in the next cubicle to someone who doesn't heed the call of soap and water.
The book is written like the magazine in short dabs so there is nothing to get bogged down with. Perfect reading on the train or in the throne room (bathroom to the common folk).
My verdict: Buy this and some of the other Men's Health Life Improvement guides and give them out as stocking stuffers or as part of the holiday grab bags. In an extreme occasion just leave it on his desk and let him get into it on his own. He shall thank you for it in the long run.

I own six books on men's style so far. The only other author to whom I gave 5 stars was Alan Flusser.This book is expertly organized. The information is clear, and it is all rather thorough. It takes you from being and idiot (which I was) to being quite well informed (which I'd like to think I now am.) If you are going to buy only one book on men's style, get this one! If you buy two, get this and _Style and the Man_.
