A Fantastic book! Worth buying just for the beautiful pictures of clothing and embroidery!

This book focuses more on parts of clothing and accesories rather than the full thing. It has drawn up pictures of the full clothing pieces, but does not have the whole picture.

Still an absolute Gem of a book, that has furthered my desire to collect old clothing.
A "must-have". Wonderful, wonderful close-ups of clothes. Pinking, embroidery, flouces and pleating.
This history of fashion tells the story of men's and women's fashionable dress through the ages right up to the present day. Over 200 illustrations cover clothes for all occasions and include a wide range of fashion accessories.
A copiously illustrated history of men's neckwear from the V&A.
