Full Description
We are in the midst of a cultural shift--an aesthetic inflection point--where
business norms in manners of dress are changing. "Casual Friday" has given way
to the full-time casual workplace. With so many sartorial options you need
advice. "The Laws of Style" are just that--clear rules for sartorial
presentation through the very practical viewpoint of the office reality of the
service professional (lawyer, banker, accountant, consultant)--and yet the Laws
are so much more.
Witty, bright, charming, and informative, The Laws of Style
is at the same time a striking visual resource with more than 40
illustrations created by renowned fashion illustrator Rodrigo Saldana. In
addition to the author's 54 "laws of style," the book includes short
introductions to highlighted designers relevant to each Law. More than just a
simple dress-for-success guide, author Hand's erudite, creative, elegant, and
whimsical narrative style is a fitting tribute to the laws he has created to
assist you in establishing and elevating your own style—both professional as
well as personal.
