From Library Journal:

Winner of the Coty Fashion Award in 1973 and the Council of Fashion Designers Award for Accessories in 1994, Judith Leiber designs day and evening bags coveted and owned by socialites, celebrities, and First Ladies. Published in conjunction with an exhibit at the Museum of the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City, New York Times writer Nemy's book provides a cursory view of Leiber's life, the manufacturing of her designs, and anecdotes about the owners of her purses. The book contains close to 200 photographs of her exquisite handbags, from leather day bags to rhinestone-encrusted, molded-metal minaudieres, small handbags that fit in the palm of the hand and are produced in such whimsical shapes as tomatoes, teddy bears, and eggs. Recommended where there is an interest.
