About this product

Product Information

A classic in its field, this splendid guide to fashion history takes readers on a grand tour of the world, starting in ancient Egypt, circa 2200 B.C., and continuing on to the late nineteenth century. Handsome, accurately rendered illustrations depict a vast treasure trove of wearing apparel - furs, veils, ruffs, pointed bodices, and sashes abound, as do cloaks, leggings, waistcoats, breeches, military uniforms, and assorted head- and footwear.All levels of society are included in this thorough, panoramic display of past fashions - from peasants and the middle class to the nobility. Here is apparel that clothed inhabitants of Far East kingdoms, gladiators of the Roman Empire, Crusaders of the Middle Ages, Dutch citizens of the 1600s, and Parisian society in the late 1700s. More than 1,900 costumes are shown, including fashions from ancient Assyria, Babylonia, Persia, and Greece, as well as clothing from England, France, Germany, Turkey, Italy, and other European countries.An essential reference for costume designers and students of fashion history, this detailed survey will particularly delight the armchair time traveler.

The book was listed as being in very good condition, as are most of the books that I buy from this company. I bought the other two books to go with this as a Father’s day gift and the other two were in”Very Good” condition but this one was very obviously not in as good condition. The two front cover corners were damaged and ragged but there was no time to arrange a replacement. I don’t know what is going on with WOB this last month but this is the 3rd book which arrived in poor condition.
