  • Euro centric clothing

    it's not really a complete history of fashion, though it is very good for European styles. It has both male and female garb but lacks Most Asian clothing. There is mention of a modern Japanese designer but not really ancient Japanese wear. India and China are only mentioned in the appendix. Same with African clothes.

  • A lavish Look at Fashion Through Time

    Complete and comprehensive in a beautifully illustrated and lavish presentation. More than just fashion illustration but rather an examination of how history and culture was influential in the evolution of style. A thorough look at western design. The only negatives are that modern era clothing is limited to runway styles and there is little on other cultures.

  • Full of information

    Great breakdown of eras and explanations with multiple images so as not to set standard by one garment.
