Bringing the Jazz Age to life through the clothes of the flappers and "Thoroughly Modern Millies," "Fashions of a Decade: The 1920s" revisits an important part of social and cultural history. As the fabric of society changed, fashion took on a life of its own - exploding with new colors and trends - alongside the innovative rhythms and styles of jazz music. It was a period of youthful escapism, a reaction to the stern clothes and strict behavior that was expected during the Victorian Age, and this revised, full-color volume captures the essence of that social change.

"Fashions of a Decade: The 1970s" brings this period of history to life through the clothing that helped define it. From platform shoes and bell-bottoms to miniskirts and hot pants, to Afghans and cheesecloth fabrics, the seventies remains one of the most diverse decades in clothing history. Perfect for lay readers or historians alike, this revised, full-color volume explores the many facets of this exciting topic.
