    Denna Arnold-bok är lika mycket en klassiker som hennes övriga. Tidsepokens skräddarkonst var på hög nivå, något som tydliggörs i både text och bildmaterial. Kräver en hel del sömnadsvana om man vill använda boken rent praktiskt - men att ha den som referenslitteratur i bokhyllan är också trevligt!

Övrig information

Janet Arnold was a historian of fashion, which combined her two greatest passions: the theatre and clothes. Her early books were conceived as aids for the fashion and theatre students she taught, but as her unique range and depth of knowledge became apparent, more and more museums and other institutions sought her advice and, today, her books are essential tools for the study of dress and have been used throughout the world.
