4 comments about Elvis Fashion: From Memphis to Vegas.

1. An absolutely wonderful book! What a treat to be taken into the archives at Elvis Presley Enterprises and be able to see up-close some of the clothing worn by the King of Rock and Roll. Being able to put the clothing with the time and place he wore it is a history lesson. Julie Mundy is a serious Elvis fan who gives the rest of us fans a peek into something we can only dream about.



2. The basic concept of this book is what basically makes it great. Old photos of Elvis in all kinds of different outfits, both for the stage and from his personal wardrobe, are paired with the brand new photos of the same clothes now kept in the Graceland archives.
   As simple as that, but it works. The new photos are truly great and together with the high class layout, it makes it a really quality investment - a coffee table book in the best sense of the word. The accompanying text by Julie Mundy is informative and well-written. No need to wonder who made what clothes, when, what the cost was at the time, and when Elvis wore it - all the information is right here. I personally really enjoyed the parts about the people who designed for Elvis, in particular the interview bits with Bill Belew who amongst other things did Elvis' famous jumpsuits.
   The book is also a look back through history. It reminds you that Elvis dared to have a fashion style uniquely his own way before fashion dictated that everyone should have their own individual style. The book is a beautiful and interesting document of Elvis' transformation - and the development in fashion as Elvis interpretated it - over his 20 years career and definitely a good buy!



3. Wow -- I love this book!!!!!! Having extensively researched Elvis's wardrobe for my book The Girls' Guide to Elvis: The Clothes, the Hair, the Women, and More!, I am familiar with a great deal of Elvis's clothing -- this book is filled with things I've never seen before! What amazing access to Elvis's closet!! If you're fascinated by Elvis's personal style (and who isn't?!), you'll want to own this beautiful coffee table book. Well, well worth the price!



4. Great work and collaboration from Graceland executives made this book possible. Julie Mundy brings us closer than ever to many of Elvis's clothes and wardrobes. All photos are well described, professional, and exciting!
   This book also shows us some of Wurthmeiers photos that are stunning!
   Great coffee table material and Conversation Starter
   Would have been a great pleasure to author this book!
   Long live the King!

1. I have not recieved this book nor the book titled "T-Shirt Factory", purchased on 06/04/2007 along with the "Stranger than Fiction" DVD which I did recieve. I can no longer track them on your website, please let me know what we can do about this.
   
   Thank you for your time and consideration.

2. Accept no imitations--rock tease is the real deal. I had to buy a second copy because mine was getting so worn from use. The pictures are great, the t-shirts are awesome, and it's clear that this sexy book's authors not only know what they're talking about, but treat the whole thing as a labor of love. That said, I love this book, my friends love this book, my neighbors all have copies, and you should too: it's just that good.



3. This book is a great resource for the rock t-shirt afficionado and the casual fan alike. Fantastic photos of hundreds of rock's most interesting tees. The text details the t-shirts' designs and surveys the major trends in rock tees from the 1950's through the 1990's. I bought this book for myself and then ordered it for several friends. I highly recommend it for any rock or fashion fan!



4. Whether you're a fan of art, vintage tees, or rock-and-roll, Rock Tease is a cool book for any collection.
   
   It's smart and well written, without being pretentious. The authors do a great job of telling the story behind the rise and progression of rock t-shirts with interviews and insider accounts about this iconic and understudied art form.
   
   There is a diverse and colorful range of tees featured in this book (chances are you'll find one from your favorite band!), with interesting explanations and side-notes describing the tees on each page.
   
   I bought a copy for myself and will be getting a few more to give for gifts!



5. Very cool. A must have for anybody who loves rock and roll memorabilia and a delight for fans of rock in general. The book takes a funny yet sophisticated look at the history, design and significance of rock t-shirts and even throws in some interviews with the gurus of rock tees. Most important the book is stocked with excellent pictures of the coolest, most bizarre and funkiest rock tees. As the book says "Everything you need to know about rock and roll is writ large on rock T-shirts." And everything you want to know about rock T-shirts is writ large in this book.

1 comments about Mondino: Two Much.

1. I actually liked the first Mondino book better. This book has the same feeling of the last book, nothing new to offer. He still is edgy and avant-garde, and has great use of color. Was not as excited with these photos.

   Rankin's photos are masterful - technically brilliant, thought provoking yet playfull.
