Vanity Rules: A History of American Fashion and Beauty
 
2000, Millbrook
 
"The Hooblers take a humorous tack to their subject, relating the foibles of both the masses and particular celebrities from the earliest Native American culture to the present. Their take on the planned obsolescence of the fashion industry is particularly keen. All aspects of costume are included-dress, beauty aids, makeup, hairstyle, cosmetic surgery ."
