SYNOPSIS: In doing costume research, I have found plenty of resources on women's fashions, and very few dedicated to men's fashions. This is by far one of the best resources I have found on the history of men's fashions. With over 1000 illustrations, this book illustrates the evolution of men's fashion from the late eighteenth century to the present day, focusing on clothes worn by the well-dressed gentleman. From footwear and hairstyles to coats and jackets, this book will give you the details you need to make your story accurate. It also includes a pictorial summary of how fashion lines have changed over the decades. A must for clothing your well-dressed gentlemen.TO ORDER THIS BOOK, CLICK HERE!*NOTE: Prices are current when the page is posted on the site. Amazon.com may change the pricing policy at any time.
