Más información sobre el libro
Fashionable takes a look at some of the most bizarrely beautiful and outlandish trends in clothing and ornament, from the medieval steeple headdress and the eighteenth-century dandies of the Macaroni Club, to the dangerously tight corsets of the 19th century and the futuristic space-age look of the 1960s. This book catalogues some of fashion's greatest triumphs and sorriest mistakes. Its colourful narrative and provocative illustrations demonstrate how attitudes towards status, wealth, philosophy, religion, politics, or art have influenced the fantastic fashions of past. Fashionable teaches us that fashion reveals hidden meanings, historical conundrums but most importantly shows us that fashion is fun.
