Fashion Babylon by Imogen Edwards-Jones

Really fascinating read and insight into the fashion industry, glad I'm a magazine designer and not a fashion designer, far too much pressure!! Some funny moments throughout and are models really that dippy?
The passage that stick in my mind is this one which is a theory of one of the characters - "The year you become famous is the year you stop growing as a person. Like, Michael Jackson became famous at five. He wants to play children's games, hang out with kids, build a fun fair in his backyard and eat sweeties. Robbie Williams was sixteen, which is why he is always shagging girls and behaving like a teenager. George Clooney, on the other hand, was nearly forty, which is why he is such a delightful, well-rounded individual."
