Allegra Biscotti Collection (2010) - Plot & Excerpts

Something a little different from me - this is a book I downloaded as it was (and still is) on offer at 1p on Amazon. It's a teen book but after reading some of the reviews I decided to give it a go. The book is based on Emma - who has to invent an alter go Allegra to pass off her fashion designs to a magazine - she is after all only a teenager.I love fashion and used to sew all my own clothes, and when I was younger did have a desire to be a dress designer- so this book took me back to those days. Except for Allegra (Emma) she actually does get to do it. There is some texting but other than that there is a lack of actual "teen speak" and so it is an easy book to read and a little escapism. I loved all the descriptive writing about the actual sewing, less so the "Bees" who are reminicient of "Mean Girls" and "The Heathers". Emma wants nothing more than to become the next big fashion designer. But she's barely thru high school and has no formal training. But what she lacks in training she makes up for in designs and innovative concepts.When a chance encounter with a bridezilla who works for the fashion mag Madison, her designs get the attention they deserve, but Emma freaks and makes up designer Allegra Biscotti. Pretty soon Emma has to deal with best friend issues, schoolwork, and trying to come up with clothes for a collection.Even though the characters are all younger, it's still a cute book and I really love the little illustrations throughout the book. If you want a quick, fun read, this is perfect .
