From Ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs to the catwalks of today, the handbag has long been more than a practical accessory. A symbol of identity, status and self-expression, it has carried everything from love letters to treasured keepsakes, and even the occasional dog.In On Ladies and Handbags, award-winning author and illustrator Mylo Freeman tells the stories of 50 remarkable women and the bags that accompanied them. Featuring fashion icons, activists, musicians, pioneers and trailblazers, each beautifully illustrated profile reveals how this everyday object has become part of women's personal and cultural history.Stylish, insightful and full of fascinating stories, this richly illustrated book is a celebration of fashion, history and the extraordinary women who helped shape both.
