Críticas

The book appears to provide a comprehensive overview of dress and behavior. I personally like the inclusion of a chapter on research. In this area of our discipline, good books are VERY hard to come by. What the authors have proposed is a very thorough analysis of basic dress behavior and is much needed. -- Jessica Strubel, University of North Texas, US Clear and accessible approach the social and cultural contextualization of fashion. Clear student objectives and student activities that can be embedded in teaching strategies. -- Caroline Alexander, London College of Fashion, UK Table of Contents and overall organization is sound. I appreciate the consistency of the first-person voice. -- Amy Meadows, Columbia College Chicago, US
