Beads have been a fascinating method for embellishing fashion since
ancient cultures sought personal adornment. The twentieth century
has seen some of the most innovative, colorful, and wonderful uses
for beading as an enhancement in apparel, and, recently, beads have
come into fashion as never before. Both vintage and recent costume
are desirable as much, if not more, for their beading as for the
overall design. This lavishly illustrated book includes chapters on
the history, techniques, preservation, and collecting of beads in
the world of fashion. With 534 beautiful color photos, a detailed
text, captions, value guide, index, and bibliography, it is the
first to cover both vintage and recent costume and accessories in
one volume. With clothing by designers, ranging from Fortuny and
Mackie to unknowns, this volume will delight anyone in the field of
fashion.
