[From back cover] Costume authority, stage designer, and scholar, Herbert Norris envisioned the history of wearing apparel as a series of great tableaux which he brilliantly described in an encyclopedic four-volume history of fashion. The present study?part of that monumental effort? presents a rich and inclusive panorama of clothing styles of the nineteenth century. The exceptionally detailed narrative focuses not only on clothing worn during the reign of particular monarchs, but also provides commentary on the social milieu and activities of the period. Beginning with the last years of King George III (1800-1820) and concluding with the latter part of Queen Victorias reign (1877-1900), Norris charmingly details a host of nineteenth-century apparel: a French court dress (1818), a gentleman?s cloak (1823), the Garibaldi shirt (1861), an evening dress (1865), and a Parisian gown (1895). Also included are tennis, hockey, golfing, bathing and cycling costumes, and scores of other outfits, underclothing and headgear. Ably illustrated by Oswald Curtis, this comprehensive survey is enhanced by 200 finely detailed black-and-white line illustrations and twenty-seven full color drawings. Exuberantly written and highly readable, this masterful study will provide an invaluable resource to anyone interested in the history of fashion and costume.
