Summary, etc Here, in 2000 full-color drawing, is the definitive history and most comprehensive record of twentieth-century fashion accessories ever published. Panoramic in scope, this encyclopaedic survey covers every kind of male and female accessory for both day and evening wear: hats and caps; shoes, boots, slippers and sandals; bags and purses; umbrellas and parasols; jewelry; scarves, stoles and capes; gloves and belts; and ties, cravats and bow-ties.<br/>The century’s archetypal accessories are all here: the cloche and pearl necklace of the twenties; the slouch hat and two-toned shoes of the thirties; forties’ headscarves and turbans; fifties’ trilbies and clip earrings; seventies’ platforms;and the omnipresent sneaker of the nineties. In addition to high fashion items, there is a wide range of streetwear and sportswear, from baseball caps to leisure footwear such as flip-flops and plastic sandals, and every variety of the ubiquitous sports shoe.<br/>The meticulous drawings are accompanied by complete description of each accessory. A reference section contains a comprehensive bibliography and a chart that shows how all the chief accessories for both men and women have evolved since 1900. Also included are more than 85 biographies of the century’s most influential accessory designers, from Salvatore Ferragamo and Manolo Blahnik to Patrick Cox and Georgina von Etzdorf, plus short histories of companies -Gucci, Hermes, Camper, Doc Martens, and other-who have played a vital role in accessory design. <br/>Following the author’s hugely successful 20th -Century Fashion and Men’s Fashion, this book too is destined to become the unrivaled reference work in its field, indispensable to any fashion enthusiast, historian or collector, and to any designer working in the performing arts.<br/>
