This review is from: Everyday Fashions of the Twenties as Pictured in Sears and Other Catalogs (Dover Fashion and Costumes) (Paperback)
If you love fashion from the 1920's or just saw "Chicago" and would like more background on it,this is a worthwhile book to flip through. Some the pics are not the best quality and childrens clothes are only on one page. However, You really do,get an idea of what the average person wore back then,which may surprise some readers.All in all, A decent book for fashion history buffs.

This review is from: Everyday Fashions of the Twenties as Pictured in Sears and Other Catalogs (Dover Fashion and Costumes) (Paperback)
This is a great book if you're looking for an overview of fashions from 1909 to 1930, concentrating on clothes available from Sears catalogs of the period. The book includes women's, men's, children's, and infant's clothing. The text is entertaining to read. I was a little disappointed that there were not more examples of fashion in the 20's. Nevertheless, it is an informative and fun book to refer to if you have an interest in period fashion
