Booklist Review

Some 150 colorplates of men, women, and children dressed in period fashions are the highlight of this costume primer. From the stiff silhouette of the mid-sixteenth-century Spanish court dress to the 1920s flapper outfit, each sample includes a brief description of the costume and an illustration (many of which often resemble two-dimensional paper dolls). A handy, easy-to-use guide for novice costume designers and artists. Glossary; index. BJ. 391'.009 Costume History / Costume, 1550-1920 [OCLC]
