Designer dresses, vertiginous heels and a very loose grip on reality - the brilliantly funny Isabel Bookbinder makes her mark on the world of fashion

When aspiring designer Isabel Bookbinder bags a job with Nancy 'Fashion Aristocracy' Tavistock, she's sure her career is finally on track. Dazzlingly glamorous, this is a career that she can feel truly passionate about - after all, she knows her Geiger from her Louboutin, her Primark from her Prada, and she's always poring over fashion magazines. Well, ok, the fashion pages of heat.

So, learning from the very best, the future's looking bright for Isabel Bookbinder: Top International Fashion Designer. Within days she's putting the final touches to her debut collection, has dreamt up a perfume line, Isabelissimo, and is very nearly a friend of John Galliano. And on top of that she might even have fallen in love.

About the author

Holly McQueen

Holly McQueen has wanted to be a writer ever since discovering that the nuns at her junior school would let her off maths homework if she wrote a story instead. After unexpected detours via law, magazine journalism, and even musical theatre, she began writing her first novel in 2006. Holly lives with her husband in London. She still avoids maths.

Holly McQueen is the author of The Glamorous (Double) Life of Isabel Bookbinder and The Fabulously Fashionable Life of Isabel Bookbinder. She's currently working on her third Isabel Bookbinder novel, due to be published May 2010.
