4.0 out of 5 stars The" Bees-Knees"!, August 26, 2003
By Robyn Lee Markow "webcat1" (Northridge, CA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
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.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fashion and Fun, November 5, 2006
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

5.0 out of 5 stars Required Reference
The decade-by-decade images from all the books in this series are, IMHO, required references for those interested in fashion and costume design in the 20th century.
