Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Fashion Sourcebooks is a series of beautifully illustrated paperbacks presenting the costume drawings of John Peacock. The series charts the development of women's and men's clothing from 1900 onwards, with a volume devoted to the fashions of each decade. John Peacock's Fashion Sourcebooks are destined to become an indispensable part of the library of any fashion enthusiast, historian, or collector, and are sure to provide inspiration to any designer or student working in the performing arts.

The 1920s saw radical changes in dress. Day Wear, Evening Wear, Sports and Leisure Wear, and Accessories are included, and complete descriptions of each garment accompany the drawings, itemizing color, cut, necklines, sleeves, fastenings, buttons, and belts. The reference section charts the evolution of fashion and garment shapes, and provides biographies of outstanding 1920s designers and a bibliography.
