Betsey: A Memoir by Betsey Johnson, Mark Vitulano
4.0
Being a young teen with a subscription to Sassy magazine in the late 80's, I was aware of Betsey Johnson. I was never really into fashion but there were certain designers I really liked, Betsey being one of them. My husband met her at a couple of her shows in NY in the 90's and said she was one of the nicest people he'd ever come across in the industry.
I had no expectations about this memoir at all considering that the only things I really knew about Betsey was 1) her penchant for cartwheels and 2) that I had liked many of her designs that I saw.
I really enjoyed this book - her positive mindset is so refreshing and wonderful to come across in a memoir. Considering my response to this book, I would think that Betsey Johnson's fans as well as fans of fashion will love this book.
My thanks to Betsey Johnson, Penguin Viking, and NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review this book!
