Picture Worse

This idea of a book has the common idea of filling pages with fasion of the past. The thing I liked most about the book is how detailed the semi-small text was about the history. The only problem was the pictures. Some illistrations were in color, but the photos were in black and white. The pictures gave me part of the picture, but color would have been much better. A great book for fashion followers around middle school and above ages.

A lot Of Fun!

I love fashion history,so I checked this book out of the library and I wasn't disappointed;in fact I was pleasantly surprised! This book has facts that are really interesting and obscure and it covers each fashion era very well. Although it's billed for younger readers, Anyone whose interested in clothes should enjoy it..!
