Reviews

This book’s scope and breadth has long been needed in the field of fashion history. Its macro approach to the growth of mass fashion, luxury brands and the textile complex since the mid-nineteenth century is readable, easily digestible, thought-provoking and well-researched. * Dr Kate Annett-Hitchcock, Emerita Professor, North Carolina State University, USA *
