DESCRIPTION
The nineties, Harvey Nicks and me 'A riot' The Times
From legend of the high street Mary Portas comes a no-holds-barred account about her time as the window dresser and creative director for Harvey Nichols that is full of juicy anecdotes from the fashion world and '90s nostalgia
'Absolutely irresistible' Joanna Lumley
'Entertaining and energetic' Stylist
'I couldn't put it down!' Michelle Ogundehin
I Shop, Therefore I Am is the story of how Mary Portas transformed Harvey Nichols from a dying department store to an era-defining fashion destination.
With her trademark wit and candour, Mary takes us behind the shop window - to the heady glamour and excess of the nineties, to the risks she took and the stunts she pulled, to the people who kept the show on the road and the tough lessons that have shaped her career. It is a story of grit, resilience and vision against all odds.
