Overview
From St Francis's robe to the Wonderbra, some of the most notorious, celebrated, myth-making symbols throughout history are gathered in this thought-provoking gift book. This volume puts fashion and style in their rightful place at the centre of the historical stage. A lodestone of falling dynasties, ascendant queens, infamous celebrities and notorious criminals, the deeply subliminal and theatrical power of fashion cannot be denied. While critics and moralists through the ages have deemed fashion as frivolous, this book proves fashion's importance in cultural memory.
