Bruce Weber

No review really needed, November 18, 2005
By mkb (new york, new york USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Bruce Weber (Hardcover)
Following Bruce Weber's seminal first two books (untitled 1st book) and O Rio, this 3rd monograph perhaps lacked the more coherent thematic structure of it's predecessors. However by the mid 80's Bruce Weber had become so prolific and successful that a few books followed that captured some of his diversity, sublime eye and effortless style. The sheeer beauty and quality of Bruce Weber's work spoke for itself (as in all his books). To quibble with stars is absurd and misses the point.

Thing of Beauty - Stephen Fried

Trashy celebrity bios are usually diminished by the fact that we've already heard the stories about Lonnie and Burt, or Madonna and Sean, or whoever the current target is. Author Stephen Fried manages to get all the sleaze value plus a lot of surprises by choosing supermodel Gia Carangi as his topic. Although her face is widely recognized, Gia finished her modeling career in a blaze of heroin and disease just before the time when models became celebrities with name recognition.

From Publishers Weekly
Ramsey's best friend in high school was the beautiful Ali MacGraw, who hopscotched right over the gawky stage of adolescence. With such a friend, Ramsay says, you couldn't help but feel insecure. Readers might be tempted to feel the same as Ramsey describes hopscotching over her own gawky, aging stage. Beautiful and accomplished, she has gone from happy stay-at-home mom of six (of whom coauthor Hummel is one) to older career woman and runway model in her 60s.

Nigel Barker's Beauty Equation: Revealing a Better and More Beautiful You - Nigel Barker (Boek)



Review
Beautiful book! Nigel Barker delivers., August 25, 2010 By Top Model Fan "Pat" This review is from: Nigel Barker's Beauty Equation: Revealing a Better and More Beautiful You (Paperback) What a fabulous book. Nigel has some great insights into how to always looks great in photos. I always try to look cool but end up looking silly. Can't wait to now use my Beauty Equation and do all the cool chalenges he ends every chapter with. And the book is so fun. He seems more serious on Top Model but he writes some really funny stuff. He used a lot of girls from the show including my favorite, Shandi. All the photos are by Nigel (or of Nigel when he was a model...yum) and are gorgeous. I see on his website that he is doing a book tour. I will be first in line to get my copy signed! Great Book, Great Message, Great Design... Just Great!, September 22, 2010 By Nick Trojan "Nick" (USA) - See all my reviews This review is from: Nigel Barker's Beauty Equation: Revealing a Better and More Beautiful You (Paperback)
