Getting dressed every morning probably causes more trauma than anything else we do on a daily basis. No one understands this better than Betty Halbreich. She's seen firsthand that putting on clothes is as much -- if not more -- about the mind as it is about the body. Each day, her dressing room at Bergdorf Goodman is filled with women searching for something. They may think they're merely shopping for a new dress, but as Betty knows, sometimes they're really shopping for a whole new life. Whatever these women are seeking, Betty is sure to help them find it.
With simple instructions and witty asides, Betty takes her experience out of the dressing room and puts it into readers' hands. Follow her through the years and through the stores as she sheds light on such fashion conundrums as how to break up with the color black, what to wear on "Casual Friday," what "black-tie" really means and how to wear just about any accessory.
Betty elevates shopping and dressing to an art form, yet she makes you realize how simple it really is to look fabulous. She is truly a fashion therapist, dispensing wisdom, wit and advice on how to enhance your natural beauty, build a more confident self-image, and, most of all, have a little fun while doing it.

The stunning true story of Bergdorf Goodman’s legendary personal shopper Eighty-six-year-old Betty Halbreich is a true original who could have stepped straight out of Stephen Sondheim’s repertoire. She has spent nearly forty years as the legendary personal shopper at Bergdorf Goodman, where she works with socialites, stars, and ordinary women off the street. She has helped many find their true selves through fashion, frank advice, and her own brand of wisdom. She is trusted by the most discriminating persons—including Hollywood’s top stylists—to tell them what looks best. But Halbreich’s personal transformation from cosseted young girl to fearless truth teller is the greatest makeover of her career.

From the 96-year-old New York City legend, bestselling author, and iconic stylist Betty Halbreich comes this wise and witty collection of guidance to help people of all ages look, feel, and live their best. For half a century, Betty Halbreich has been curating wardrobes and bearing witness to the vicissitudes of life as Bergdorf Goodman's original personal shopper. Of course, visitors to the store are awed by a 96-year-old woman who still holds down a nine-to-five, let alone one in the youth-obsessed industry of fashion. But age is only half the story: Betty has built this career by giving encouraging yet deeply honest advice. Much of it has been about what to wear, but her insight is by no means relegated only to matters of the closet. She is known for her good taste on many levels, from her immaculate Park Avenue apartment of 70-plus years to the fashion stars she's helped discover and the looks she's styled for iconic series like Sex and the City and Gossip Girl. In short, Betty is in the unique position to dispense useful prescriptions on how to look good and live well at any age. In No One Has Seen It All, she collects her signature firm and frank guidance on relationships, careers, style, etiquette, and keeping house, as well as eloquent reflections on aging, solitude, and modern life. The result is a definitive dispatch from a powerful woman who still holds her head up high and wants you to do the same.
