One hundred years of style by decade and designer. The twentieth
century experienced the most fashion changes in history: from hoop
skirts to mini skirts, from wearing cotton to plastic. Fashion was as
turbulent as the times. Throughout it all, Vogue magazine was there,
as the leading visual filter. 20th Century Fashion, published in
association with Vogue magazine, is the definitive style bible for
anyone interested in the past, present and future of fashion. It
takes a fresh look at fashion history over the twentieth century and
charts the evolution from corsets to Coco Chanel to punk. The book
chronicles and explores one hundred years of developments and
movements, including: - 20s flappers - Christian Dior's New Look -
Swinging Sixties - New Romanticism - 90s Eclecticism Illustrated with
eye-catching archive images, 20th Century Fashion also features the
work of the photographers who helped immortalize seminal fashion
images. An A-Z section profiles two hundred and fifty of the greatest
fashion designers who inspired, created and altered the course of
fashion -- from Azzedine Alaïa to Zoran by way of Balenciaga and
Yohji Yamamoto. 20th Century Fashion is an informative and
inspirational look at how fashion reflects and projects social mores
and individual values.
