Colby, Anita. Anita Colby's Beauty Book. Fourth Printing. 1962. Book is in very good condition; dust jacket is in very good minus condition—minor chip to jacket spine and light fraying.
In a recent book, Simon Doonan affirms the principle of this much earlier one. He wrote, “Knowing who you really are and dressing the part . . . is life affirming for you and life enhancing for other people.” Like Doonan, this author had years of experience in the field (Macy’s, Lord and Taylor, Saks, Elizabeth Arden), which she puts to good use in this book of advice, which prioritizes timeless style and remaining true to oneself over adhering to current fashion.
"I became 'Feminine Director of David O. Selznick Studios' working with such stars as Jennifer Jones, Shirley Temple, Ingrid Bergman, Dorothy McGuire, ann Todd, Rhonda Fleming, and Valli. Time called me 'Selznick's one woman charm school.'"
