Book Club
Introducing the Fashionista Book Club: Blow by Blow by Detmar Blow
By Lauren Sherman
I picked up Detmar Blow’s biography of his late wife, Isabella Blow, while at the shows in Paris. I read it one evening in less than two hours.
I have a million things to say about Blow by Blow, but since the book won’t be released in the US until November 9, I’m going to hold back on my lengthy opinion.
Indeed, Blow by Blow is the ideal launchpad for the Fashionista Book Club, a series we’ve been wanting to start for some time now.
On Friday, December 3 at 3pm we’ll be hosting a live chat about the book right here on Fashionista. You’ll be able to hear what each of us thinks about the book, and you’ll also be able to voice your own opinion.
In the meantime, pre-order your book here. If you have a Kindle or the Kindle app on your iPad or iPhone, you can also pre-order a digital copy.
Enjoy Blow by Blow–we can’t wait to hear what you think!

This is a great idea! I’ll definitely check the book out… I’ve tried hosting a live chat about books I’ve read before too but my chatroulette audience was unappreciative, to say the least.

Super excited for this. Pre-ordered the book for my kindle. Finally a book club where I dont have to force myself to read the books!
Great idea. Glad you have given a few weeks to get it then read it. Great choice.
I hear the other Blow bio is the better book… by Lauren Goldstein Crowe

Yes! English majors turned fashion fans unite!
I just read every article referenced in her wikipedia page and preordered my kindle edition which comes out on my birthday. I could not be more fascinated by her. Each article had so much new information, so many new quotes. Amazing story, I am almost disturbed by the level of connection feel to her personality, but I’ll save that for the discussion!
