"What People Wore When "combines the studies of two classic
nineteenth-century illustrators Auguste Racinet and Friedrich
Hottenroth for the first time. Their works are presented first by
chronology and then by subject, so that illustrators, historians,
and students alike can choose to follow the path of fashion through
the centuries, or study in detail the contrasting styles of
individual clothing and accessories. Silhouettes reveal the shape
of style through the ages, detailed cross-references draw attention
to recurring motifs, and navigation bars help the researcher to
travel the complex chronology of costume.
With authoritative narrative from leading experts in the history of
costume, extraordinary contemporary quotes that reveal the impact
of style in its day, detailed annotation, and an extensive
glossary, the book provides a magnificent study of the rich
vocabulary of style through the ages.
