Inhaltsangabe

This forms part of a series designed for those who need reference material on the history of dress, using a series of illustrations as the central part of each book thus giving the reader an idea of what was worn and how. The clothes are described, explained, interpreted and arranged in date order. Each illustration is captioned in a consistent way under the labels "head", "body" and "accessories". The reader may need to know whether a certain style was fashionable or unfashionable at a certain time, usual or unusual - such information is clearly and consistently laid out. An introduction outlines the broad developments of dress in the eighteenth century. The text should be of interest to students, designers and collectors.
