Synopsis
'I love Shulman's honesty and her writing is thoughtful, immediate and completely unaffected. This is the book to have on your bedside table.' - Diana Henry
'A delicious and wise read... giving a wonderful and honest perspective on what actually matters.' - Anya Hindmarch
Praise for Clothes...and other things that matter:
'Self-deprecating and stylish, this is sure to become a classic.' - Vanity Fair
'Alexandra Shulman's style is unaffected, immediate and hilariously dry. She's brilliant at observing everyday feelings in a joy-sparking turn of phrase.' - Helena Bonham Carter
Red Lipstick * The Mother * A Friendship Wardrobe * Younger and More Modern * The Wedding Dress * Type Two Fun * Roast Chicken * Things You Shouldn't Say * The Other You, The Other Me * The Pleasures of Bed * You Can Always Leave
From the Sunday Times-bestselling author of Clothes...and Other Things That Matter, Alexandra Shulman, comes an intriguing blend of memoir, anecdote, social observation and cultural history. Rooted in Alexandra's experiences as a child, a journalist, a young woman always looking for the great love, a mother, and a Vogue magazine editor, the book explores the fabric of daily life alongside thoughts on style and the way we present ourselves - all described with her characteristic wit and incisiveness.
Alexandra Shulman left her job as Editor-in-Chief of Vogue in 2017 to embark on a different way of life and while this is in no way a book of self-discovery, it explores the question of things or patterns of behaviour that make us who we are and why they matter.
