from Thames & Hudson
Price: $12.89

Customer Review:
Using only primary resources (paintings, statues, etc. from the periods being shown), this book is both concise and trustworthy.

from Checkmark Books
Price: $25.05

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

5.[no image]History of 20th Century Fashion
from Costume & Fashion Press
Price: $22.08

Customer Review:
_A History of 20th Century Fashion_ is best appreciated as what it is; a basic, introductory text to the subject of fashion history in the past century.

6.Understanding Fashion HistoryUnderstanding Fashion History
from Costume & Fashion Press
Price: $22.76

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.

9.Fashion: The Twentieth CenturyFashion: The Twentieth Century
from Universe
Price: $21.86

Customer Review:
It's a Rizzoli; light on the text, heavy on the graphic. But vastly incomplete and devoted to high fashion only. No trickle-down here, which is a shame. When will someone publish a historically complete book on fashion encompassing couture to K Mart?
