PLEASE NOTE: The author dated, inscribed and signed in black ink at the upper section of the blank page facing the title page ("April 30, 2000 / To Betsy Fellow KCitian! Best wishes, Tina Agins" * I take "KCitian" to mean native of Kansas City). The author covered the fashion biz for the Wall Street Journal for a decade prior to writing this book when she was its senior Special Reporter. Text is enhanced by an 8-page B&W photo section printed on glossy stock., including a photo of designer Donna Karan and her pal Barbra Streisand. The rear DJ cover features excerpts from rave reviews by Andre Leon Tally, Vogue's Editor at Large; Bud Konheim, CEO, Nicole Miller, Ltd.; and James B.
