Praise for

HAUTE PURSUIT

Angela reminds us that it’s always the journey and never the destination. A great ride through the ‘80s and ‘90s that is so much of my own experiences. What a great read!
— Steve Madden
“Remarkable, Angela. Truly remarkable!” New York Times best-selling author
— Michael E. Gerber
From the first musical reference, George brings us back in time and shows us New York in the 70’s, 80s and 90s through the lens of the fashion industry.
She brings us along on an insider’s tour and shows what it takes to make it in one of the world’s most competitive and unpredictable businesses. Lessons that apply as much today as back in the day all set to the beat of 80’s and 90’s pop culture. I loved every page of the journey.

  • " Although I was opening my sales and marketing agency with little sales rep experience (Remember the acrylic fiasco?), I had two things going for me. I had sat on the other side of the buying table for years, witnessing my sales reps, and I had a good eye for buying. I was able to effortlessly translate my skill of trendspotting into finding good, slash that, great saleable lines to represent. And armed with the notion that if Candy could do it so could I, I forged ahead.."

  • "My showroom was a must-stop shop for every savvy retailer, large and small, looking for the next hot trends in fashion. Editors for all the magazines dropped by and called out styles regularly for their meetings. I recall a young, wide-eyed Rachel Zoe coming in from time to time when she was an assistant editor at the now defunct YM magazine. She went by her full name back then, Rachel Rosenzweig."

  • "Sketches in hand, I walked over to the pattern service Nick recommended. The place was west of 8th Avenue in one of the stodgy factory buildings I remembered going into as a buyer all those years ago. Once inside the space, I found myself in a large workroom amongst a slew of dressmaker mannequins draped with muslin in various stages of completion and several patternmakers busily working away at their respective tables."
