Newspapers & Magazines
'An epic narrative ... the format makes for a handy dip-in guide without losing out on the details' - Dazed Digital 'Lavishly and handsomely illustrated ... provides encyclopaedic, frequently surprising and enlightening information ... convinces us that the subject of fashion is not only meaningful - but inexhaustible' - Prospect Magazine 'A serious yet readable history that takes the reader from the togas and tunics of early civilisations to the age of ASOS, with a welcome sprinkling of unpredictable detours on the way ... and delightfully detailed inserts' - Daily Telegraph
