520 _aThis text documents in pictures the most exciting and diverse period in fashion: from 1900 to today, covering high society, uniforms, sportswear, streetwear and couture. It will appeal to everyone with an interest in fashion as well as students.The last hundred years or so years bore witness to the transformation of women's fashion. The restrictive corsetry of the early twentieth century gave way to looser styles such as those made fashionable by Paul Poiret. As women's lived changed dramatically under the shadow of two world wars, so the style of women dress was altered beyond recognition. From homemaking to couture, from rationing to "The New Look," from birth of a teenager to mass manufacture, from high society to celebrity culture. The book covers 400 photographs and illustrations, many puplished for the first time, tell the stylish story of a fashion revolution.
