Review

"During the pre-Oscar Frenzy that culminates with the walk down the red carpet, billions of viewers get to see what fascinates them most: what the stars are wearing. In Made for Each Other, fashion expert Bronwyn Cosgrave gives us the stories behind the parade of dresses. From the inimitable glamour of thirties Hollywood's leading ladies to Marlene Dietrich's postwar chic and Cher's daring Bob Mackie creations, Cosgrave lavishes attention on the actresses nominated for Oscars and a few seminal presenters, tracing the fashion trends of the widely watched Oscar ceremony from its inception in 1929 to the present."--BOOK JACKET
