A beautifully written, sweeping historical women's fiction novel that spans both time and the globe as we follow one woman's journey from simple country girl to global fashion icon.
I need to tell you a story, ma chère. My story.
Rosa Kusstatscher has built a global fashion empire upon her ability to find the perfect outfit for any occasion. But tonight, as she prepares for the most important meeting of her life, her usual certainty eludes her.
What brought her to this moment? As she struggles to select her dress and choose the right shade of lipstick, Rosa begins to tell her incredible story. The story of a poor country girl from a village high in the mountains of Italy. Of Nazi occupation and fleeing in the night. Of hope and heartbreak in Switzerland; ambition, glamour and love in Paris. Of ambition and devastation in Rio de Janeiro; success and self-discovery in New York.
A life spent running, she sees now. But she will run no longer.
Breathtaking and utterly enthralling, The Dressmaker of Paris is a stunning debut novel that is perfect for fans of Lucinda Riley, Kate Morton and Dinah Jefferies.

The beginning was similar to many others. Girl leaves the country to try her luck at getting a job in a Parisian fashion house. Astonishingly, she ends up in an Haute couture atelier as a, most usually, seamstress. The designer sees that special Je ne sais quoi and takes the girl under her wing.
Given the all too familiar beginnings, I was frustrated until a horrific situation happened to the girl child, which got my attention, and I knew that the writer had chops.
I love this book. I love how the protagonist draws you in as though you are who she is talking to by often beginning her stories with; you see chéri or something like that, which is always directed at Chéri.
The story spans from WWII to the Berlin Wall. It touches upon these lightly—more as markers of time periods than direct subjects. You also travel from Paris to Rio de Janeiro to NYC, and back to Europe.
I cannot say enough about how the narrator makes it come alive. I will look for other books by Karen Cass. I have never searched for books by a narrator, and I have literally listened to hundreds of hours on audible.

I absolutely recommend this book and am eagerly looking forward to listening to another of Ms. Kaufmann’s books. She is a splendid writer and rightfully deserves to be in the same class as the late Lucinda Riley. Lucinda Riley fans will love this beautiful saga.
