Great Book, Love Denim, January 25, 2006
This review is from: Denim: From Cowboys to Catwalks: A Visual History of the World's Most Legendary Fabric (Paperback)
Anyone with an interest in denim will find this wonderful book to be a very easy and enlightening read. The pictures are all bright, clear, and of high quality. There are several great images of musicians and celebrities wearing denim (Elvis, Marvin Gaye, Miles Davis) as well as close-up shots of vintage jeans (The first known pair of Levis!). Not only are the pictures great, but the book is written in a manner which is easy to digest. The subject ranges from the history of denim to current trends. It also contains a glossary of terms for quick lookup so if you need to be reminded what selvage or sanfordized is, it's there for you.
I highly recommend this book to anyone who has an interest in fashion and denim, or simply anyone who wears a pair jeans.
