Fashion monograph on this iconic American designer inscribed to Veronica Hearst gratefully for all my attention throughout the years initial sign GB she of course was the dethroned socialite.
For more than three decades, Geoffrey Beene has devoted himself to the joy and the mystery of the "possession" between a woman and her clothes. It is his passion, his pleasure. Most often described as "perverse", "radical", "enigmatic", Geoffrey Beene is as revered by the Establishment as he is by fashion's underground. He is a man who revels in his own unruliness, in his role as the subversive outsider. For Geoffrey Beene, "simplification is a very complicated process". Propelled forever forward, he continues to pare down, to streamline the female anatomy, removing padding and innerlinings, doing away with zippers and fasteners. As one reviewer has observed, "Beene works a bias so finely around bodily curves that even his seams look like they're picking up speed". The first to desert conventional runways and megamodels, he now shows his clothing on a stage with dancers leaping, doing grand jetes in layers of weightless wool melton, double-faced jersey, silk matelasse. In addition to Brenda Cullerton's bright, witty, utterly engaging and provocative text are 120 photographs - all specially chosen for this book by Mr. Beene. In them we glimpse the super-structured dresses from the early 1960s, just before Mr. Beene sets in and liberates once and for all the body from the bodice; the impact of menswear; the maverick pairings of fabrics; the explosive use of color; the refined, controlled style of his body-skimming gowns.

not bad
Format: Kindle
I loved the plot of this book. The characters just didn’t have a lot of depth. The connections and “love” just weren’t communicated very well in the writing. The author didn’t write the sweet psycho trope very well at all either. Lachlan was just a mess of a character.

A Beta Worth Rooting For
Format: Kindle
In Spare, Violet Fox flips the omegaverse on its head, giving us a Beta heroine determined to make her mark. Joining the Beta Trials to support her sick father, she's thrown into a pack that doesn't want her, especially the possessive Alphas.
But here's the twist: their sweet Omega turns out to be her scent match. Cue the angst, forbidden tension, and a slow-burn romance that will make your heart ache in the best way.
Violet Fox delivers an emotional, refreshing take on the genre, proving Betas aren't "spares." They're stars.

Beta, Alpha, Omega oh my!
Format: Kindle
Omegas are precious and given to Alphas & their packs... but the Betas want in too. To this end, the Beta government is rolling out its trial of assigning a Beta to each Alpha-Omega pack. But forcing a Beta into a pack where they are not wanted will not end well... Of course, no one expected the Omega to fall for the assigned Beta. Great read and cliffhanger

A familiar story, just with…..less.
Format: Kindle
So, as other reviewers make clear, this is very similar to Pack Darling and The Beta. It’s much closer aligned with The Beta, in plot and maybe more like Pack Darling with characters.
That being said, I don’t hate this…..but it wasn’t great either. It’s both books mentioned but just….less. Less angst, less emotion, less feeling. The plot feels very half fleshed out, and the “bad guy” feels underwhelming. I didn’t really feel any real emotions from and of the male leads, except maybe Oliver. The others fell sorta flat for me. And Mika makes herself out to be this big bad ass straight outta training and then we never see it from here again with the one fitting room incident as the exception.
SPOILER:
The whole, “Oh, I’m actually probably an Omega, but I don’t wanna be but I do actually wanna be but no one can ever know my secret that I do nothing to hide “ thing fell so flat. She never commutes to believing she was secretly an omega, but also mentions her “secret” a lot. It just felt so manufactured.
I’m intrigued enough to read part 2 and see how the author closes everything out, but this is not one I’ll recommend or ever come back to.
