  An insider's account of the glamorous and competitive world of high fashion and fashion magazines - and how the drive and optimism that catapulted Liz Tilberis to the top also helped her survive ovarian cancer. In 1993 Liz Tilberis had it all. Having risen to the editorship of British vogue, she had been hired as editor in chief of HarpersBazaar, the bible of US fashion. Moving to America with her husband and 2 small children she presided over the dazzling relaunch of the magazine, instantly becoming 1 of the most prominent figures in international media and fashion circles. Then, all at once, the rug was pulled out from under her feet. On the eve of her Christmas party, whose guests included the Great and the good from Donna Karan, Ralph Lauren and Calvin Klein, to Randolph Hearst and Barbara Walters, Tilberis was dianosed with 3rd stage ovarian cancer. 4 years later she is alive and well - a survivor. This is her extroadinary account of her career in high fashion and her remarkable battle with cancer, told with immense charm, honesty and wit. When illness struck she fought it with the same exuberance and audacity that propelled her to the very top of an extremely competitive profession and amazingly is still winning.
