Fashion in Paris: The Various Phases of Feminine Taste and Æsthetics From the Revolution to the End of the Xixth Century (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from Fashion in Paris: The Various Phases of Feminine Taste and Æsthetics From the Revolution to the End of the Xixth Century
Each of the coloured illustrations. Is a faithful witness, a complete representation, of some corner in Paris, vanished now, or utterly changed. Fashion figures therein only as a logical and indispensable accessory, and all the interest is centred in the background of the picture, which reveals one of the most fashionable aspects of our ancient city.
The nineteenth century has already passed into the domain of history. I have thought it would be interesting to bring the panorama of feminine costume during these hundred years into the compass of a single volume; the changes of fashion during this interval have been greater and more varied than could be imagined.
