The fashionable History series looks at the evolution of clothes, shoes, adornment and accessories and relates them to changes in social behaviour, lifestyles and taste, from earliest times to the present day. Each book explores how itens developed over time and highlights the way in which new skills and changes in technology have influenced fashion. A timeline puts each theme into its historical context. From loin clothes to bespoke business suits, this book examines the development of trousers and jackets through the ages and looks at the cutting and tailoring methods that have made such items of clothing possible.
