## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ excellant book
*by L***K on March 26, 2013*

Found this book to be even better than l even expected. Excellant source of referance. Incrediably beautiful sketches of designs from hollywood era. Great read. Beautiful coffee table book for gift for anyone. I absolutley loved the book. Interesting how the sketches were so abundant, not cared for and thrown out in those days. Now they are so valuable and a great source of our recording history. Highly recommend the book and well worth the money.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful templates
*by B***S on March 7, 2013*

I bouth this as a birthday gift for my sister and had it shipped to me to check the quality of the item first. I LOVED IT!!! After looking at it I quickly sent it to her so not to be tempted to keep it for myself. However I am now ordering another for me. Alot of the sketches are full page with beautiful color backgrounds. Many of the I my opinion a suitable for framing.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A treasure!
*by C***N on November 21, 2012*

This book is a veritable treasure trove of movie costume design sketches from the best Hollywood designers and illustrators of the past hundred years. Deborah Nadoolman Landis, herself a highly accomplished costume designer (Animal House, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Coming to America, etc.). Deborah Landis pursued thorough research into a subject known for its lack of historical records. In this book Landis covers the history, purpose, and eventual scattering to the winds of the Hollywood studios' once large inventories of film costume design sketches. The illustrators of those sketches( they are traditionally known as sketches although they are usually water colors) are given a near-encyclopedic treatment, each arranged alphabetically including some 600 costume sketch illustrations as examples of their work. Included will be many well-known film-favorites and iconic star wardrobe items but also complete surprises and unknown and under-appreciated contributors to Hollywood's heritage. Tracking down these sketches, once just tools of the trade in Hollywood film-production, but now highly prized collectors' items, was a labor of love for Dr. Landis. She is currently a professor and Chair of the Center for Costume Design at UCLA. This is a great book to own or to offer.
