Picture Book Wednesday: Dazzling Zelda



Zelda Wynn Valdes was a pioneer in fashion - this book shares her story.

I was not aware of this fashion designer before reading this book and I'm impressed. I love how she dressed women of all shapes and sizes. The list of women she dressed is amazing. I admire how she inspired and supported young talent. I love how she created fancy dresses and dance costumes (especially love how she dyed the tights for dancers of color). 

I did a little more research:
The fashion designer Zelda Wynn Valdes, who could fit a dress to a body of any size. Dance Theater of Harlem
