Book Description/Synopsis:
Catwalk, studio and fashion-shoot photographs
reflect the real-life social changes and attitudes that brought about the look
of what we wore, and wear – from the bustles and heavy tightly-laced corsets of
the Victorian era, through the softer, more fluid lines and brighter colours of
the Edwardian period, to the scandalously short skirts and boyish look of the
1920s; from the austerity of the 1930s and conservative ration-driven outfits
of the war years to the opulent materials, narrow waists and swirling skirts of
the 1950s; from the non-conformist hippy styles of the 'Swinging Sixties',
through the outlandish disco-inspired horrors of the 1970s, to the
broad-shouldered business chic of the 1980s; from the starkly simple minimalist
styles of the 1990s to the more colourful, softer, more feminine clothes of the
present day.
