Star Style: Hollywood Legends As Fashion Icons

Customer Reviews:

Starlicious!.......2007-01-13

This book is so pleasing I made sure I bought two copies. Very
Beautiful fashion summaries for some very beautiful Hollywood leading ladies. My favorite fashion icons are Audrey Hepburn, Marilyn Monroe, and
Dolores Del Rio. I wish the author would do another book that highlight current fashion icons such as Jennifer Lopez, Nicole Kidman, Halle Berry etc.

I like this revised edition.......2000-01-06

I bought the hardcover edition -- it was my favorite fashion book. But now, the revised edition with the introduction that involves new stars and their photos (Gwyneth Paltrow, Whoopi Goldberg, Drew Barrymore and Cher) adds a new dimension to the story. I'm really happy and for a paper back, the quality is EXCELLENT. Thanks Patty Fox!

Great look at Hollywood style icons.......1999-07-20

This is a lovely book with wonderful photographs of Hollywood fashion icons. Another thing that is great about this book is that it features those who are not as popularly remebered, such as Delores Del Rio, along with more popular icons such as Audrey Hepburn. Great book! Highly recommended!

A fantastic book!.......1998-12-18

I think this is the best Hollywood fashion book there is! The photos are great and the stories are fun.

Book Description

John Knoll was 14 years old when the first Star Wars film (Episode IV) came out in 1977, and it changed his life. By the time the first prequel, The Phantom Menace, was released in 1999, he was its visual effects supervisor-in charge of all special effects-a position he held through Episodes II (Attack of the Clones) and III (Revenge of the Sith). With Knoll as tour guide, this deluxe addition to Abrams' 365 Days series provides the single most comprehensive collection of Star Wars images, including breathtaking 360-degree panoramic shots of sets and models, as well as concept art, props, film stills, and memorabilia.

The only book that covers all six films, Star Wars: 365 Days is Knoll's spectacular survey of the visual world created by those films. It shows us George Lucas and his crew creating their universe on location and in the studio-in pages dense with imagery and information, documenting a remarkable sustained creative effort by hundreds of devoted filmmakers and craftsmen. A CD-ROM, with nearly 100 QuickTime panoramas of the sets, adds to the beauty of this edition.

Customer Reviews:

Packed like a WOOKIE PUNCH!!!.......2007-07-29

WOW - photos I've never seen anywhere else! What a fun non-read this is!!!! For sure a book to talk about and keep on a coffee table! Small, packed and colorful!

The perfect gift for a star wars fan.......2007-07-16

This book offers a very nice mixture of inside views to the making of the original Star Wars movies as the new series Episode I to III. Each day (or double page) is showing one aspect of this amazing series with lots of pictures and information waiting for you.

Only downside in my opinion is that it is a bit too much focused on the new Episodes even though there is tons of information about the original movies too.

On the other hand you have a CD with 360-degree-views of some sets and some rare pictures on your PC!

All together this might be the perfect gift for a Star Wars fan like me ;-) 5 Stars!

Excellent book.......2007-06-04

This book is not the same old thing. It features pictures I'd not see anywhere else. Its a very heavy, very thick book full of great behind the scenes stuff. Worth every penny. I just wish John Knoll would make an equivelant book for Pirates of the Caribbean.

Great Star Wars Book.......2006-10-19

This book is really cool for most Star Wars lovers. It shows you how they filmed the movie. You can see who played the Wampa. I think the coolest part is Mustafar because you can see the lava river bank. You can also see on one page all the Astromech droids. You can also see alot of cool other stuff.
You should buy this book if you're a Star Wars fan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Even if you are a long-time fan, you know NOTHING about Star Wars until you read this book..........2006-04-21

This is by far the best non-fiction STAR WARS book EVER, and believe me I read quite a few of them, including all of the "Making of" and "The Art of" books for every movie in the franchise.
If you want to know how every single scene in the 6-movie saga was conceived, this is the book for you. You will NEVER watch the movies the same way again after reading this book. I am not even sure where to start. You get 365 scene descriptions, each scene is spread over 2 pages, the pictures are highly detailed and the book paper is top-quality glossy, as good as ANY printed material can get. The size of the book is small, but it is obviously quite thick and heavy due to the page count. But this is as far as any complaint can get for this book. Almost every picture is never seen before, and the scenes are presented in the order they appeared in each movie. The movies are presented in the order they were made (Episodes IV-VI, then I-III). Only this book will make you really appreciate the true passion of George Lucas and what he and his crew went through to conceive the wonderful fantasy worlds that came out of his imagination. Just witnessing the evolution of scene preparation from low-tech techniques to fully virtual environments is hugely fascinating and worth the price of this book. From Tunisia to Norway, from studios in England to ILM Headquarters in Californa, the global adventures involving the shooting of the entire saga is an incredible event to witness. Did you know only one full-size X-Wing Fighter was built for Episode IV, or background scenes for the high-speed Speeder chase on the forest moon of Endor in Episode VI were realized by a cameraman running in a forest with a Steadicam strapped to his body shooting only one frame per second? This book is chock-full of such entertaining trivia. It is an addictive read, and as far as creativivy and imagination are concerned, the author of the book, visual effects specialist John Knoll, truly deserves a place right up there with George Lucas . Highly addictive and mandatory reading for anyone who has heard of the phenomenon called STAR WARS.

Several completely new sections and complete chapters have been added including a new opening chapter as an introduction to principles and terminology; MIDI timecode; librarians and editors.

There is a discussion of the choice of computer for MIDI control, different approaches to sequencer software design, user interfaces, the Apple MIDI managers etc. The final chapter covers Practical Systems Design.

As thorough as it is dull........1999-09-02

If you really desire to know the precise ins and outs of MIDI system channel code, then this book is for you. If however, you would prefer a book which enlightens and suggests new creative possibilities as a result of using this technology, then perhaps think again.
