Reviews

"Buck the touch-screen trend and read a hardcover book. Nudie Cohn, the tailor behind Elvis Presley's famous gold lame getup, knows a thing or two about dressing up. "Dream Suits: The Wonderful World of Nudie Cohn" details the life of the Russian-born designer to the stars who created the rhinestone cowboy look." - San Francisco Chronicle
