5.0 out of 5 stars
A superbly written, scholarly survey of fashion history.
Clothes choices and fashion style often dictate the creation of the self and its image: but how? Crane offers a somewhat scholarly exploration of fashion trends from 19th century France to modern America, drawing important links between style and social change. This approach will interest not only art libraries, but schools offering social science studies.

A scan read
overly distracting language, which constantly repeats itself in several chapters. There are good points within the book it just takes a while to reach them!

this author has a serious misconception of class. this book is also extremely american-centric.
