Fashion Climbing: A Memoir with Photographs by Bill Cunningham

lighthearted medium-paced

2.5

While an overall interesting read, Cunningham certainly is very full of himself. If you enjoy memoirs where the authors reflect candidly on their own experiences and highlight their mistakes, this is not the book for you. Cunningham details many of the things he was doing and the world going on around him, but never do you step into his mind and understand what he was truly thinking or feeling. This is less of a memoir and more of a book of short stories about the fashion industry in the 1940s-60s.
