Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Although Edwardian-era clothing remains popular among fashion enthusiasts, there are very few books focusing on styles of the early 1900s. This compilation bridges that gap with dozens of authentic images from the period, selected from 1906 editions of Harper's Bazar. Since its first publication in 1867, the magazine has reflected contemporary styles and trends, and these illustrations - from spring hats and fancy aprons to French evening gowns and bridal attire - offer an intriguing reflection of American values at the turn of the twentieth century. The four-part collection begins with everyday fashions, including sweeping gowns for home, travel, and outdoors. A section of seasonal fashions features spring and summer ensembles, followed by an assortment of styles for weddings, the theater, and other special occasions. The final section, For the Young and Old, includes simple gowns for both ends of the age spectrum as well as graduation gowns. Costumers, fashion designers, and anyone interested in the history of style and couture will welcome this choice assembly of genuine Edwardian fashions. AUTHOR: Kristina (Harris) Seleshanko is the author of several Dover books on fashion, style, costume, and design, including Authentic Victorian Fashion Patterns and 49 Authentic Turn-of-the-Century Fashion Patterns. She has also written scores of articles for publications such as Woman's Day, Victorian Decorating and Lifestyle, and Sew News. She lives in North Bend, Oregon. From spring hats and fancy aprons to French evening gowns and bridal attire, these authentic magazine illustrations offer a glimpse of American values at the turn of the 20th century.
