The BEAU MONDE

Thanks to Amazon's great Out-of-Print Service I am now the proud owner of an immaculate copy of this book.Martin Battersby traces the transformation of the dressmaker to couturier during the Art Deco period. This was a time when the fashion illustrater was almost as big as the designer and the book covers illustrators such as Paul Iribe and Erte. There are over 100 illustrations, many in colour. It is a great reference book.

Informative, yet flawed
Rating  (3)

I purchased several of these books to use as small gifts, and while they do make nice gifts, there are a few errors. At least two of the knots in the book give the wrong direction for the final loop, which can make what should be a symetrical knot (Windsor) into a fairly lopsided knot. The book does, however, give nine otherwise good, creative ways to tie a necktie.

Have you ever wondered how many ways there are to tie ties? This book gives you more than you need to know, 9 to be exact. All knots are nicely illustrated with brief description on their characteristics. This book covers beyond classic Windsors and Four-in-Hand. I gave 4 stars, because it didn't cover the basic techniques, such as how to put a dimple in the middle. Here is a hint for you. To achieve sharper looking knot, buy a shirt with 1/2" bigger neck size. This will help reduce tie-space, thus giving you smaller looking knot.

I learned how to tie some very neat knots
Rating (4)

Overall I thought the book was very straight foreward. This book takes you beyond the foolish 4;windsor, 1/2 windsor, 4- in -hand, and the bow. I've always seen excellantly tied ties in fashion advertisements and wondered how they did it. The fact is they are not using the knots mentioned above. The classic knot described in the book is very sharp semi-semetrical with a small vortex at the bottom. There was even two ways to tie the bow; one easier than the other. The only complaint is the layout of the diagrams although clear some were scatered all over the page making it difficult to follow along. Money well spent for the man who is always looking for new ways to look sharp!
