'Fashion Sourcebook - 1920s' is the first book in a brand-new series by Fiell Publishing that documents comprehensively the seasonal fashion styles of the 20th century, decade by decade. Sumptuously illustrated with over 600 original photographs, drawings and prints, this title is a must-have reference work for not only students of fashion, but for all fashionistas. 'Fashion Sourcebook - 1920s' focuses on the Art Deco period with its beautiful beaded dresses, cloche hats and t-bar shoes as worn by the fashionable flappers and the "bright young things" of the time. An accompanying introduction outlines the major themes within fashion during this period and introduces its most famous designers and assesses their creative contributions.
