This book came in Betsy's stocking and we thought it was worth sharing! The London Design Museum has compiled a fun and interesting collection of famous dresses that have reached iconic statuses. Perusing its pretty pages is like walking through the world's most exquisite closet. Whether it's that little black dress, a flirty mini, that classic wrap dress, a goddess maxi, or that Chanel suit, chances are one of your favorite frocks was inspired by one of these iconic fashion breakthroughs.

Looks like a book I'd love!
I love these images - especially the safari dress!
I got this book for Christmas and it is GREAT!! I was kind of surprised they used the picture of Amber Valetta in that Versace dress and not J-Lo.
