from Checkmark Books
Price: $13.86

Customer Review:
The most complete book of History of Costume I have found is "Survey of Historic Costume" by Phyllis Tortora and Keith Eubank. The title of this book "The Complete..." and the lack of content simple don't belong together.
This book is a beginners basic introduction to costume. It needs to be... more info

from Berg Publishers
Price: $17.99

Customer Review:
This book is very academic. I was looking forward to something descriptive, anecdotal, fun and interesting but I couldn't get past the dry, boring text and citations of academic papers.

from St. Martin's Griffin
Price: $15.99

Customer Review:
This book has pictures and descriptions of costume from Anatolia to South America - it's really worldwide. Unfortunately, the major focus is on Europe, since it's based on two classical european illustrators.

I had a lot of fun with this book. I am not into fashion but I do love history. False fashion mixed in with real people, real events and real trends makes for a great read.

Customer Review:
Using only primary resources (paintings, statues, etc. from the periods being shown), this book is both concise and trustworthy. Unlike other books that try to cover an expansive period of time in Western costume, this one never uses original or after the fact illustrations, which can be misleading... more info

First off, what fun! A handbook of all the well-dressed gentleman must know...how to wear it, how to buy it and the even where to buy it!

10.Understanding Fashion HistoryUnderstanding Fashion History
from Costume & Fashion Press
Price: $19.77

Customer Review:
I am taking a fashion history class, so the book serves its purpose well, it is not, however, very well written or engaging if you are looking forsomething interesting to read. most of it talks about people who have documented fashion history and not about the garments or textiles.
