Fashion in Detail
by Avril Hart
This sumptuously illustrated book offers the first up-close view of the richness and variety of historical dress of the 17th and 18th centuries. Drawn from the Victoria and Albert Museum's world-famous collection, these garments display skills that are now lost, yet continue to inspire today's leading designers. Much of the finery seen here is too fragile to be on permanent display, or its details too intricate to be captured in conventional photography. Jacobean blackwork, neoclassical tambour work, exquisite stitching, and knife-sharp pleats are pictured in stunning photographs. alongside such unusual techniques as stamping, pinking, and slashing -- many of which are rarely employed in the modern world, as they require labor-intensive handwork impossible to replicate by machine. With line-drawings showing the construction of the complete garment, and a text that sets each in the context of its time, this book is a visual feast for all fashion lovers, and an essential resource for curators, collectors, students, costumers, and designers.
