Book Description: V & A Publications, London, 2002. Soft Cover. Book Condition: Near Fine, Minor Bump. Dust Jacket Condition: None. 11 3/4" x 9". 223 pages, superb colour photographs by Richard Davis, excellent drawings by Leonie Davis. Showcases in close-up detail the richness and variety of historical dress of the 17th and 18th centuries. Drawn from the Victoria and Albert Museum's world-famous collection, these garments can be seen in close-up for the first time, and in greater detail than is normally possible. Many of the skills displayed are lost to the modern world - such labour-intensive handwork is no longer done, and the effects cannot be replicated by machine.
