The Baby Wears Prada celebrates baby Lucie's 'adventures in wardrobe land' where Lucie is at the mercy of her fashion mad Mum. Written from Lucie's point of view and including interviews with other well clad infants we get the distinct feeling that Lucie's Mum is often rather jealous of her little one's wardrobe collection and we don't blame her! With an outfit for every occasion and some to spare this is one very well dressed young lady!
