Jim Heimann, Alison A. Nieder
Fashion of the 20th Century

2009 y.
Publisher: Taschen
Description: Between the first decade of the 20th century, when women were still locked into figure-shaping corsets, to the last years of the millennium, when sexy sweats and low-rise jeans became must-have status items, fashion evolved from a luxury enjoyed by the highest echelon of society to a global business that whisks trends off the runway and into the stores before the last supermodel has left the catwalk. From full skirts to miniskirts and morning coats to leisure suits, men`s and women`s clothing design evolved so rapidly that it was all one could do to keep up and stay in style. Each decade is now associated with definable fashions, short-lived fads and signature silhouettes. And in recent decades, retro has become de rigueur, as designers continually recycle the past for modern-day inspiration. Featuring over 500 ads from the Jim Heimann Collection, these fashion advertisements from 1900 to 1999 give readers a stylish retrospective on the century that defined, redefined, and… [detailed...]

Eugenia Paulicelli
Fashion under Fascism : Beyond the Black Shirt (Dress, Body, Culture (Paperback))

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description Prada, Gucci, Max Mara: high fashion is synonymous with luxury, glamor, pleasure, and Italy. Yet Italian fashion also has a dark history that has not previously been explored. The Fascism of 1930`s Italy dominated more than just politics--it spilled over into modes of dress. Fashion under Fascism is the first book to consider this link in detail. Fashion often functions as a tacit means of making a social statement, but under Mussolini it vividly reflected political tyranny. Paulicelli explores the subtle yet sinister changes to the seemingly innocuous practices of everyday dress and shows why they were such a concern for the state. Importantly, she also demonstrates how these developments impacted on the global dominance of Italian fashion today. This fascinating book includes interviews with major designers, such as Fernanda Gattinoni and Micol Fontana, and sheds new light on the complicated relationship between style and politics.

Valerie Steele
Fashion, Italian Style

2003 y.
Publisher: Yale University Press
Description: Italian fashion?which encompasses designers and companies from Armani to Zegna?has become a dominant force in the fashion world. This stunning book discusses the rise of Italian fashion since 1945, the development of the ItalianLook from the late 1970s to the present, and the many great designers who have contributed to Italy?s fashion triumphs. Valerie Steele describes how Florence, Rome, and later Milan all became important fashion centers and how other Italian cities play specific roles within the country?s fashion system. She explains the tradition of `classic` men?s tailoring, the importance of accessories, the special connection between textile production and fashion, and the reasons why different regions of Italy specialize in different fabrics or goods. And she analyzes the integration of the various sectors of the fashion industry, a uniquely Italian model quite different from those found in France, Britain, and the United States.

Fashion, Work, and Politics in Modern France

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The twentieth century brought fashion to the masses, as consumption spilled over its traditional social boundaries and individuals began increasingly to define themselves by what they bought and how they looked. Because hairstyles became a particular emblem of the `New Woman` and subsequent versions of the modern consumer, the hairdressing profession provides a unique perspective on the evolution of mass consumer society in this era. Yet one person`s fashion is another`s business and still another`s labor, cultural history at one level is social and political at another. From grotty neighborhood barbershops to gleaming downtown salons, fashion had to be produced as well as consumed. This made hairstyles as much a matter of prices, wages, and work schedules as of shampoos and dye-jobs. This history of coiffure in modern France therefore illuminates a host of important twentieth-century issues: the course of fashion, the travails of small business in a modern economy, the complexities… [detailed...]

Fashion-ology : An Introduction to Fashion Studies (Dress, Body, Culture)

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description This book provides a concise and much-needed introduction to the sociology of fashion. Most studies do not make a clear distinction between clothing and fashion. Kawamura argues that clothing is a tangible product whereas fashion is a symbolic cultural product. She debunks the myth of `the genius designer` and explains that fashion is not about clothes but is a belief. There is an institutional structure, ignored by many fashion theorists, that has shaped and produced the fashion phenomenon. Kawamura further shows how the structural nature of the fashion system works to legitimize designers` creativity and can make them successful. Newer fashion cities, such as Milan and New York, are the product of the fashion system that originatedin Paris. Without that systemic structure, fashion culture would not exist. [detailed...]

Fashion: A History From the 18th to the 20th Century (подарочное издание из 2 книг)

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: This book consists of five hundred photographs of items of clothing selected from the extensive collections at the Kyoto Costume Institute (KCI). Since its inception in 1978, the KCI has held exhibitions around the world as a way of organizing research on Western fashion. The exhibitions and the catalogues that have accompanied them have met with acclaim from international audiences and by cutting-edge designers from all over the world. Part of the recognition the KCI has received stems from its policy of displaying articles of clothing in a manner that is both academically accurate and true to life. In other words, the KCI presents clothing not just as historical artifacts, but also as vital elements of fashion. The exhibitions capture the elegance and charm that the clothing had in its day, as though simply having been `awakened` after a long `sleep.` The KCI hopes that this publication, which covers selected historical clothing and fashion accessories from the eighteenth to the… [detailed...]

Fashion: A Philosophy

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Fashion is at once a familiar yet mysteriously elite world that we all experience, whether we’re buying a new pair of jeans, reading Vogue , or watching the latest episode of Project Runway . Lars Svendsen dives into that world in Fashion , exploring the myths, ideas, and history that make up haute couture, the must-have trends over the centuries, and the very concept of fashion itself. Fashion opens with an exploration of all the possible meanings encompassed by the word “fashion,” as Svendsen probes its elusive place in art, politics, and history. Ultimately, however, he focuses on the most common use of the term: clothing. With his trademark dry wit, he deftly dismantles many of the axioms of the industry and its supporters. For example, he points out that some of the latest fashions shown on runways aren’t actually “fashionable” in any sense of the word, arguing that they’re more akin to modern art… [detailed...]

This book examines the powerful relationship between metropolitan modernity and fashion culture.

In a rapidly changing global fashion system new centres like Shanghai are making claims to join the ranks of Fashion`s World Cities. In chapters ranging from Los Angeles to Moscow and Dakar to Mumbai, Fashion`s World Cities explores the relationship between major metropolises and the production, consumption and mythologizing of fashion.

Skirts and dresses almost always have that so-important flaring hemline. For men, suits were styled in the Clean-Cut, very popular Sports Back, and Classic styles.

Current values for most items are included as a reference guide for collectors of 1950s vintage clothing.
