"Pour les passionnés de mode et d'histoire, l'ouvrage inspire forcément le respect, voire le recueillement. En 736 pages richement documentées et intelligemment agencées, les éditions TASCHEN ont réussi l'impressionnant tour de force de concerntrer pas moins de trois cents ans de création textile. (...) Passionnant, superbe, émouvant. Une référence dans l'univers de la mode féminine"Le Vif/L'Express, BruxellesBelgium |

"..a passionately dedicated and worthy selection of 500 photographs from the 10,000-strong collection, with each piece displayed on a custom-made mannequin...fashion academics will nod reverently while aesthetes will intone, "I want, I want..." with every page."Black & White Mode, SydneyAustralia |

What a wonderful book full of detailed designs from the 17th century to present date.
It covers a range of cultures, designers and tells you how designers integrate culture to their designs. It gives a brief biograpy of designers and their influences at the back of the book, but also discusses what influenced them and a particular design throughout this book. For a novice to this world of fashion this book has become my bible. AineIreland |
