Here, in more than one thousand full-colour illustrations, is the
history of Western costume, from ancient Egypt to Paris fashion.
John Peacock's meticulous drawings are organized in chronological
sections and accompanied by detailed descriptions of each figure,
including the individual items of costume shown and the many types
of fabric, cut, pattern and colour that have been used over the
centuries. An illustrated glossary gives additional information on
technical terms. The Chronicle of Western Costume is the unrivalled
reference work on its subject. No student or designer in the
performing arts, costume and fashion enthusiast, collector or
social historian will want to be without it.
