"For all the hullabaloo surrounding street style, one often forgets that clothes are first and foremost a means of protecting the body. Colin McDowell is placing new emphasis on this fact, presenting a history of fashion as it relates to human anatomy."--Vogue.com "The Anatomy of Fashionis such an innovative and intelligent way to narrate and explore fashion. Colin McDowell's mind has the clarity to do this to perfection."--Manolo Blahnik "Colin McDowell [...] the senior statesman of the fashion press [...] breaks fashion history down neatly by examining clothing as it relates to specific body parts. That is, the head, hips, torso, arms, genitals and so on... In Mr. McDowell's book, you will discover details like the difference between bosom shapes of Edwardian matrons and flappers, the evolution of cotton and synthetic textiles, the appeal of bondage wear and even the derivation of corduroy measurements."--The New York Times "Chic reading material...

Accompanying the fascinating images is McDowell's entertaining, witty and knowledgeable commentary, weaving through the centuries with his unique narration...

Synopsis
Why do we dress the way we do? Why has fashion changed and evolved over the centuries? How did the 3-piece suit come about? Why have hemlines risen and fallen over time? In The Anatomy of Fashion , respected fashion commentator Colin McDowell goes beyond standard fashion histories and narrative surveys to answer these questions and many more. Uniquely structured, taking the reader through fashion and dress from head to toe - the whole body is anatomized into sections including 'The Body Unclothed'(Skin and Body Adornment, Materials and Texture, and Colour and Pattern), 'The Body Anatomized'('Head to Waist'and 'Hips to Feet'), and 'The Body Clothed'(Looks and Themes in Dress). Visually rich, with over 500 photographs, illustrations, paintings and film stills, the book includes work by designers and labels such as Ralph Lauren, Chanel, Yves Saint Laurent, Alexander McQueen, Versace, Carhartt, Diesel and more. The book's dynamic structure and layout are equally suited for browsing and for serious reference, but The Anatomy of Fashion is not simply a picture book. It is a sourcebook by one of the world's leading fashion scholars that seeks nothing less than a thorough analysis of the roots of every aspect of fashion today.

- t***u (101)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaItem was packaged well and arrived in good condition. The watch was accurately described. USPS really dropped the ball. Package was roughed up a little and arrived two weeks late. Seller lit a fire under them on her end and was able to get them to deliver the package. Kudos. Price was fair. I was happy to pick up this watch with the expansion band as opposed to the strap.

It's an awesome and cool looking keychain, I have always wanted it but couldn't justify the original price from the Mcqueen site. And then I saw this and the value was jaw dropping! Thank you so very much for the absolutely amazing experience, I'll definitely buy from this seller again! :)Alexander McQueen Women Corn Dolly Bag Charm/Keyring. MSRP $695. NEW (#195825334268)

Huge and heavy and the pictures are stunning, disturbing (some of them) but thoroughly memorable. Book arrived extremely well packaged and in very quick time. Very trustworthy business. Highest recommendation.
