There is an old English saying: "Manners maketh man." One can also
claim that "accessories maketh clothes." This new book sets out to
demonstrate the variety and beauty of fashion accessories during
the hundred-year period beginning in 1840. Fashion has always
reflected the social, sexual, and economic spirit of its age.
Clothing and accessories also express the status, aspirations, and
wealth of the wearer. Most books on fashion tend to divide clothing
and accessories into decades. This book seeks find the natural
shifts from one fashion theme to another. The accessories are shown
with a full-length, dressed figure and explanatory text for
context. This is an invaluable book for collectors, fashion
historians, designers, and theatrical costumers.
