Best Value for Money
A wonderful book, I do not think that I have ever invested in a better Fashion Buying book. The CD that accompanies the book is so useful and easy to follow. I would highly recommend investing in it, as it is really the best Fashion Buying book I have every read so far. Worth every penny. Retail Buying: From Basics to Fashion, 4th Edition
