A children's book that many adults would enjoy browsing through. A quick historical overview of costumes worn through history. The book includes photos of reproduction or antique costumes worn by models. Some jewelry references included. ( )

I think this is a great book to learn about clothes and how they have changed through the years. Along with outstanding photographs, it tells about the uses and development of clothing and accessories. We had fun looking at the clothes from the different eras we were learning about. My only wish would be that it were ordered more by date than type of clothing. ( )
