520			_aThis colorful and lively book takes a close up look at the intricacies of 20th century fashion. Full color illustrations focus on a Schiaparelli appliqué, a Chanel button-hole, a Utility pocket or the braiding on a romantic Pre-Raphaelite sleeve by Bill Gibb. Short commentaries put the detail in historical context and examine the couturiers choice of fabric and methods of construction while a specially commissioned black and white line drawing of each garment appears alongside every full color detail. This beautiful book will be indispensable to those interested in the history of 20th century design.
