I think it would have been magical to have experienced the store when it was open all those years ago.Lucy in the Skyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12151981955331505365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7492995932622127142.post-36573468404397137882013-07-07T00:15:37.311+10:002013-07-07T00:15:37.311+10:00Yes I've seen the Foale and Tuffin book, it ha...Yes I've seen the Foale and Tuffin book, it has been on my wish list for quite a few years now!Lucy in the Skyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12151981955331505365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7492995932622127142.post-88951398129751335602013-07-06T06:28:42.140+10:002013-07-06T06:28:42.140+10:00She was a GENIUS!!!

Much of my career revolved around advertising and I am well aware of the importance of image and packaging. Barbara's strategies built a dynamic brand and positioned BIBA as the leader in affordable luxury, a concept that will always be popular with women. Thank you for an interesting lesson, Lucy, and good night to you, dear friend!Shady Del Knighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03839935472941264414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7492995932622127142.post-16502492966684006112013-07-04T20:18:32.669+10:002013-07-04T20:18:32.669+10:00Thanks for the mention!

I'm really happy Biba won, except I kinda wish they were all even and there was a triple tie!<br />Since you posted this, I have bough Mary Quant's biography and am about to read A to Biba. Not to see who IS better but to have a better knowledge on all of them. <br />There is also a Foale and Tuffin book - I might have to get that next!Catherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10255354405253714311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7492995932622127142.post-73243080587277204562013-07-04T19:18:53.085+10:002013-07-04T19:18:53.085+10:00I'm glad Barbara won!
