Clothing design and trends cannot be dismissed as arbitrary, argues the author of this book, but should be viewed as a reflection of the essential characteristics of a certain period, linked to fundamental moral and social values. Each outfit, she argues, conveys certain values, personal or general. This book offers a detailed survey of dress during the last eight centuries, with each of the nine chapters focusing on an individual era wherein she examines dress (over and undergarments, accessories, hairstyles, fabrics and colors) for men, women and children. This second edition adds observations from the last two decades. Contains some 800 line drawings. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
