Each week we feature a book written by a member of the Incubator.

This week:
Closet Control

Who: Stylist and fashion expert Barbara Horowitz
Incubator city: Los Angeles
What: How to keep your clothes up-to-date
Why: Restyle is the new retail

In your overflowing closet there lurks a wonderful wardrobe. But if you can’t see the forest for the shoe trees, you need Barbara Horowitz’s Closet Control.

This book is an illustrated guide to purging what not to wear and revamping the rest. With style and some scissors, you’ll turn tunics into skirts, T-shirts to halters, crewnecks to cardigans, and generally jazz up your garments using simple stitches, darts, and pleats. With Barbara’s innovative storage systems and expert advice, you’ll see scads of great clothes where once you saw clutter. Like that that old bridesmaid’s dress? Don’t knock it till you dye it.
