Hi All,
I know several of us think that Fred Astaire was one of the masters of style. While browsing around on Amazon today, I came across this book, "Fred Astaire Style".

I haven't seen it firsthand, but the price is good, so it's quickly been added to my wish list :)

Looks like a good book, hopefully with an emphasis on his clothes. He & Cary Grant are the top of the mark & always have been in my book! Peter :)

I saw this title in the bookstore the other day. It's a very nice book that intersperses photos of his early career with many later photos. One photo in particular, shows him at 86, if memory serves me well. He looks cleared-eyed and dashing and every bit the bon vivant he ever was. The one thing I was surprised about was how small the format of the book is; it is about the size of a trade paperback.
Great post Lauren. I should have bought it, I suppose, but I was purchasing three other hardcovers.
