Great visuals submitted by majean on June 15, 2019, 9:51am This is one of the better books I have found on the history of fashion, offering biographies on major players and dissecting different trends and innovations. It is extremely Paris-London-New York-centric, however, and it would have been nice to learn more about what was happening outside of haute couture. Still, for what it is, it's a solid and informative read.
