5.0 out of 5 stars A Thorough Review of the Era
A must-have basic reference for women's fashions of the era. Lots of full color photos with detail shots, and all clothes are shown on real people. Good collecting and care tips, too

3.0 out of 5 stars Nice Discussion of the 1920s, 30s & 40s - Some Pictures
I enjoyed the text of this book. The pictures are limited to primarily donated costumes owned by an Oregon Community Theater. The collection is almost exclusively evening wear and suits. No every day clothes and very few accessories. Clothing is shown on actual people.

3.0 out of 5 stars Nice Discussion of the 1920s, 30s & 40s - Some Pictures, January 10, 2011
This review is from: Vintage Fashions for Women 1920S-1940s: With Values (Paperback)
I enjoyed the text of this book. The pictures are limited to primarily donated costumes owned by an Oregon Community Theater. The collection is almost exclusively evening wear and suits. No every day clothes and very few accessories. Clothing is shown on actual people.

The author does share a few construction details that will help in distinguishing between the decades. This would be a good introduction but not a lot of detail. You will need other books to get a fuller view of the eras. I still recommend the 2 Ellie Laubner books as the best of their kind.
