Reviews

"Jayne Shrimpton has managed to include a lot of useful information, and many illustrations from a wide variety of sources. This book will be a useful addition to the social history curator's book shelf, as well as of immense interest and use to those whose concerns lie with non-fashionable clothing or those needing to indentify and date historical photographs." --Costume
