100 Ideas that Changed Fashion
Harriet Worsley
100 Ideas that Changed Fashion chronicles the most influential fashion ideas through which womenswear has evolved, offering a unique and engaging perspective on the subject.
Charting the movements, developments and ideas that transformed the way women dress, the book gives a unique perspective on the history of twentieth-century fashion. But rather than just documenting these changes in fashion, it crucially explains why they happened.
From the invention of the bias cut and the stiletto heel to the designers who changed the way we think about clothes, the book is entertaining, intelligent and a visual feast.
Harriet Worsley studied fashion at Central Saint Martins College of Art & Design, where today she teaches fashion communication and fashion journalism. She worked as a fashion and interiors journalist before starting a career in garden design. Her previous publications include 'Decades of Fashion and Classics of Fashion'.
