Always Pack a Party Dress by Amanda Brooks
This is a beautiful book full of lovely pictures. That being said, it was not my favorite fashion memoir out there. Interesting, yes, but kind of underwhelming. Just a collection of stories about how Amanda Brooks came into the fashion business (*spoiler alert* - coming from an incredibly privileged background helps a lot!). Nothing I do, or have ever done/experienced, could relate to anything she talked about. Being invited to the Met Ball and fretting over wardrobe is not something 99.999% of us can empathize with. So I would just skip this one. There are much better memoirs out there!
