DOWNLOAD EBOOKPerhaps more so than any other decade, the sixties had the broadest impact on the twentieth-century Western world. Across society, culture and the arts, youth voices rose to prominence and had a significant influence on new trends. Mature polished elegance was replaced by young liveliness as the fashionable ideal. Although only the most daring young followers of fashion wore the tiny miniskirts and borderline-unwearable plastic and metal outfits publicised in the press, stylish and smart fashion was increasingly available to all, with an emphasis on self-expression. New style icons such as Twiggy combined girl-next-door looks with trendy, aspirational and accessible outfits, and popular culture heavily influenced mainstream fashion. This beautifully illustrated book offers a concise guide to changing styles across the decade.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe revolutionary era of the 1960s saw many societal changes, which left an unmistakable mark on fashion. London took over Paris' position as the trend-setting capital, mini skirts and jeans were being worn by teenagers all over the world, pantsuits and oriental style evening wear even found their way into haute couture. The Germans travelled en masse to Italy for the first time and beach and bathing wear was more revealing and casual than ever before. The international media propagated this change with unprecedented fashion photography and illustration. This fashion revolution is uniquely represented here by the Sammlung Modebild - Lipperheidsche Kostümbibliothek. This book shows the most important fashion trends of the decade, divided into 12 thematic sections. English and German text.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThese color plates by Hippolyte Pauquet and his brother Polydore, reproduced directly from a rare and valuable nineteenth-century publication, magnificently depict 500 years of French fashion. Starting with the flamboyant headgear and voluminous robes of fifteenth-century royalty, the artfully rendered illustrations progress chronologically to the high-waisted Empire styles of the Napoleonic era. Members of the nobility and upper classes are well represented here. Portraits of lavishly garbed court ladies and gentlemen--many in fur-trimmed robes--appear next to dapper pages and handsome knights. Bourgeois fashions (including lace-trimmed garments for both sexes) are presented as well, along with the more modest attire of chamber maids, milkmaids, and shepherdesses. Images of such historic figures as King Henri IV, Madame de Pompadour, Madame du Barry, and Marie Antoinette complete a splendid collection. A valuable reference for costume designers and fashion historians, this beautifully reproduced volume will also serve as a grand treat for fashion enthusiasts.
