An overview of "youth" fashion movements from about the late 1940s to the end of the twentieth century. With only 1-3 pages devoted to each style, it feels a little unsatisfying, but still, there are enough interesting photos and information to make it worthwhile.

Over 50 genres of subcultural groups evolving from the Zooties, the Zazous, Cowboys, and Bikers onward to the 90's Technos & Cyberpunks. Color and B&W photographs of people and of high fashion emulated and reviving looks.
