Overview

The Secret Histories of Fashion and Fabric From the silk routes of Asia to the sweatshops of modern cities, fabric has always woven power into the human story. Every thread carries a history - of hands that spun, merchants who traded, empires that rose and fell, and revolutions stitched in seams. Threads of Time unravels these hidden legacies, revealing how what we wear has shaped who we are. Across twenty cinematic chapters, journey through the shimmering paths of silk and the dark mills of cotton; trace indigo's deep blue through empires and rebellions; feel the coarse denim that clothed miners and dreamers alike; and witness how nylon, polyester, and couture redefined modernity. Each page uncovers the intertwined worlds of invention and exploitation, artistry and ambition, beauty and power. Elegant and immersive, Threads of Time is not a book about fashion trends - it's a story of civilization told through the warp and weft of cloth. Every thread tells a story - of beauty, invention, and empire.
