I was captivated by the sociocultural contextualization of Barbie and the cultural sophistication demonstrated beyond this object of analysis; which is very rare (or practically nonexistent in some cases) in the books that talk about Barbie in particular and the world of fashion in general. The entire line of collection dolls developed by Mattel is indebted to the influence of this author.Billy Boy is one of the intellectual and sensory brains of aesthetics whose knowledge is obtained from the cradle; beyond research; personal interest and being himself.Frocking life is equally fascinating and original as the author; giving an important contribution to the memory of one of the major landmarks of the 20th century; known to those who are open to the in-depth knowledge of fashion and its historical evolution.This is not a book for addle-head 21st century fashionistas; with a mentality and a superficial culture based on social networks and smartphones; with no intellectual content behind0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. the amazing Elsa SchiaparelliBy ParisLibelluleThis autobiography/biography by BillyBoy* is an incredible story of art; fashion; artists; artisans and of course; the amazing Elsa Schiaparelli.

Must Read for Schiaparelli FollowersBy hiddenoaksI approached this book with a love of Schiaparelli jewelry and the desire to understand more about its history. BillyBoy shares his vast knowledge of everything Schiaparelli; from the world of couture to the mass-produced pieces created from her licenses. He dispels the myths that surround the U.S. manufactured pieces and gives us the story behind how it all developed over time. A very well written book; a pleasure to read and for jewelry historians; an indispensable reference. This is a book to read for an entertaining peek into a world of fashion and art and a deeper understanding of the brilliant Elsa Schiaparelli.
