The Complete Fashion Sourcebook: 2,000 Illustrations Charting 20th-Century....
This collection of drawings shows the radical, and often exhilarating, changes in
fashion styles throughout the modern period. From the emancipated 1920s to
the status-conscious 198os, fashions have modified in line with changing times
and mores, affected by social conventions, shifts in economic prosperity and
advances in techniques of mechanization. Men's fashion has moved more
slowly than women's, and is often concerned with nuances of style, but the
changes perceptible in women's fashion have been astonishingly wide-ranging.
This Sourcebook is divided into seven parts, each representing a decade.
Each decade contains sections on Day Wear, Evening Wear, Sports and Leisure
Wear, Underwear and Negligee, Wedding Wear and Accessories, providing a
rounded insight into modern developments and trends.
Charts at the back of the book reveal at a glance the evolution of the fash-
ionable silhouette throughout the decades. Brief biographies and histories
of the most important international designers and couture houses are also
included. Finally, a select bibliography is provided to assist those who may wish
to take their studies further.
