Book Synopsis

''A compelling new encyclopaedia of style'' Harper''s Bazaar
''In a world of fleeting trends, Bay Garnett has created an accessory to treasure, earning Style and Substance an enduring place in the canon of fashion literature.'' i-news

For Bernardine Evaristo, style is about a refusal to be stereotyped. Heels make Charlotte Tilbury feel powerful while Chloë Sevigny delights in the traditional, with a twist. Jilly Cooper and A J Tracey appreciate diamonds; Zadie Smith adapts her wardrobe depending on the city and Rachel Weisz loves the democracy of denim. Sienna Miller misses the freedom of a less self-conscious age.

With over sixty pieces on everything from Davina McCall on the importance of underwear to Stanley Tucci on the elegance of a narrow stripe, this is a gloriously eclectic celebration of self-expression.
