This book examines the entire sweep of Japanese clothing history,
from the sophisticated fashion systems of late-Edo period kimonos
to the present day, providing possible theories of how Japan made
this fashion journey and linking current theories of fashion to the
Japanese example. The book is unique in that it provides the first
full history of the last two hundred years of Japanese clothing. It
is also the first book to include Asian fashion as part of global
fashion as well as fashion theory. It adds a hitherto absent
continuity to the understanding of historical and current fashion
in Japan, and is pioneering in offering possible theories to
account for that entire history. By providing an analysis of how
that entire history changes our understanding of the way fashion
works this book will be an essential text for all students of
fashion and design.
