Its not really their biography, but whom influence them and etc along those lines. Basically, kept looking at it, but kept resisting buying until today.

Think thats it for now.

terrywho83, October 28, 2008 (view all comments by terrywho83)
There are some cool interviews and yummy looking photographs and is a great “coffee table book”. Maybe this will be a book that grows on me, rather than something that’s blown me away. But, I kind of wish it were more glossy. I was expecting to be drooling over the pages with a quickened heart beat. The interviews are fun and you get an inside look at how some of the top people in fashion think, and thus how they are successful. But the more interesting parts are with the twins and when they are talking about each other. I wish the book would have been more of an inspiration board with side notes so that readers could get a peak at how the twins think. Overall, I feel a little meh about the whole thing. I can’t put my finger on exact what it is, but I was expecting more?
