Good .. but the rest in the Babylon series are better	Customer Rating:
Whilst i did enjoy this book it was not as good as the other books Imogen Edward-Jones has written. Still very funny and a good insight into the world with funny stories about celebs. If you enjoy this book then you will love the rest of the series

Fabulous Darling (air kiss!)

Customer Rating:

Having enjoyed the author's other 'Babylon' books, I knew I wouldn't be disappointed by this one and I was correct. It's a series of anecdotes encased in the narrative of an up and coming designer's fashion year and the book doesn't fear the murky depths of 'fashion hell'. It's worth a read for the sheer quality of writing and the little gems, such as why the fashion world doesn't produce any clothing over a size 14. There's a fair amount of insider gossip too, which is worth savouring. An absolutely fantastic book, recommended to all would be fashionistas!

brilliant ****

Customer Rating:

This is deffinateley one of the best books i have read in a very long time. It has taken me months to finish books of this size before but i just couldnt put this down, i finished it within 3 days, only then because i had to stop myself reading the whole thing in one go. Its quite an insight into the industry, admitedly i expected it to have alot of celebrity gossip, but its still definately very interesting an di think if it was full of gossip it wouldnt be as much of a read.

Good book for those who enjoyed The Devil Wears Prada

Customer Rating:

Although I may agree that this book contains a rather predictable elliment to the writing style and choice of characters, I couldn't help but be gripped by an unexplainable force to read on. No pacey plot line should be expected but for a light, quick read I would most certainly suggest it to those with a light sense of humor and interested in the basics of the fashion world. I would no doubt suggest it to those who have read 'The Devil Wears Prada' as this book carries similar writing style and overall concept and view of the fashion industry.
