A Century of Fashion

More about the book

Fashion is challenged and transformed by the trends of each decade. Throughout the 20th century it has constantly evolved and been through a series of revolutions in taste. In this work, Francois Baudot guides the reader through 100 years of fashion in all its manifestations: ready-to-wear clothing, haute couture, accessories and lifestyle, to name just a few. He shows how they are inextricably linked to the development of industrialized societies, their customs, desires and the evolution of commercial techniques in Europe and the USA.
