From the momentus invention of the needle some 40,000 years ago to
the development of blue denim, from Neolithic weavers to the
biggest names in the fashion industry today - this classic guide
covers the landmarks of costume history, the forms and materials
used through the ages, the underlying motives of fashion and the
ways in which clothes have been used to protect, to express
identity, and to attract or to influence others. This sixth edition
features a new foreword and concluding chapter by Amy de la Haye.
The book is brought right up to date with a discussion about the
major political shifts within the fashion industry, highlighting
how it has responded to issues surrounding racism and sexism;
LGBTQI rights; mental health awareness; body and age diversity and
global sustainability.
This classic book contains a wealth of information on the taste and
fashion trends of England from the French Revolution to the 1940s,
and will prove a very interesting read for anyone with an interest
in the subject. Many of the earliest books, particularly those
dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and
increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in
affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text
