"Fashion" books

I don't understand their point. The "fashion" books that are generally just pictures - and nothing but pictures. I was in Half Price Books earlier and I usually always peruse the Fashion and Beauty section. In addition to "fashion" books, I don't understand fashion books that write about the worst fashions either. Anyone can write a book on anything these days - or they can claim fame to a book that's just a bunch of photocopied pictures.
