Useless	Customer Rating:
This book is utterly useless, if you've ever read a book and noticed in one area it says this and the next chapter it completely says don't do what it previously said, well then this book is a perfect example, the author should rename the book askme how to contradict. Waste of money. Content wise I found other books much more in-depth and detailed. Don't waste you money.

Only Good for the Uninformed

Having read both this book and Gentleman's guide to grooming and style, I can say that without question the latter is a better book on the subject of classic men's fashion. With that said, AskMen.com's Style Bible is not without value. If your wardrobe and fashion knowledge consist of jeans, t-shirts, and the occasional pair of khaki's that only get worn when absolutely necessary, this book is a reasonable place to start. It is fairly easy to read and written in an informal style. Overall the writing suffers from lack of consistency as it has its origins in questions answered and articles written on the AskMen.com website. Many of the pronouncements about fashion in this book are presented without any supporting evidence or history behind the article of clothing being discussed. As a consequence it makes the book a very quick read since it is light on explanation. If you've already read Roetzel's aforementioned Gentleman's Guide, AskMen.com's Style Bible brings little to the table, although I do find the table of clothing care symbols in the back of the book useful. However, if you find any of the more authoritative books on the subject intimidating, this is a fine place to start. It is better to have read this than to have read nothing at all.

Simple easy guide	Customer Rating:
As someone who was never taught things about fashion as a young fellow I appreciate this awesome and easy guide. You do not have to memorize anything but can use it as a guide whenever you buy clothes and accessories. The book will give you greater insight of what you should and what you shouldn't wear for your body type. I recommend it to everyone.

very helpful for this price	Customer Rating:
Well organized book. Easy to find what you are looking for. Great chapter on wardrobe maintenance with an excellent overview of the meaning of all those symbols you find on the tags in your clothes. Probably more for Americans than Europeans (they don't wear button down shirts with suits). On the downside: it could have emphasized more on casual clothes.

might want to consider Details' copy

Customer Rating:

All in all this book isn't bad but I wouldn't get too wrapped up into it. I found the contents informative but rather boring. The book just did not captivate me the way Details' version of the book. Although I'm not just interested in illustrations, this book lacked in the dpeartment. It had mediocre drawings that were helpful but could have been vamped up a bit. This isn't a bad book, but I consider this one just another addition to the others. The one problem I DID have though, was that this book was really for the fashion-challenged. If you don't even know how to dress yourself then this book is just for you, but if you're looking for a little more advanced tips then get Details Men's Style Manual: The Ultimate Guide for Making Your Clothes Work for You. Hope this helps a little
