—— Library JournalA modern curse is turned into a treasure trove of strangers' words
—— Ben Felsenburg , MetroGreat only in the sense of being darn good, this is a tiny, beautifully produced volume
—— David Sexton , Evening StandardNothing short of delicious... Sharp-eyed as it is wickedly funny... Witty, tender and vividly nostalgic.
—— KirkusThought-provoking and delightful. I love the way Volk transforms the apparently frivolous and, often, outmoded details of femininity into valuable lessons for life. Completely beguiling.
—— Lucy Moore , author of Anything GoesA moving and entertaining double memoir
—— Anne de Courcy , author of The Fishing Fleet: Husband-Hunting in the RajDelightful… Juxtaposes the lives of two figures who most shaped [Volk’s] views of what a woman could and should be. Both women were opinionated, secretive, imposing, hot-tempered, charismatic and crazy about clothes… Ms. Volk is thoroughly likeable, warm and generous, with a well-tuned ear and a vivid sense of humour.’
—— Washington PostPure joy... A diptych portrayal of Patricia Volk's gorgeous and infuriating mother and the great fashion designer Elsa Schiaparelli, this is an irresistible tour de force that puts on display Volk's intelligence, wit and sparkling prose.
