Long-time fashion and beauty writer, Cecilie Geary, has just committed her five decades of experiences and memories to paper. After starting out as a copywriter, Cecilie wrote for the Auckland Star when fashion journalism and photography were in their infancy here, before starting a very long association with Fashion Quarterly. She's seen trends come and go, and come back again. Cecilie Geary's memoir, Being There, Memoirs of a Fashion and Beauty Writer, 1956-2006 is available via the New Zealand Fashion
