Tracing the changing designs and styles of women's, men's and children's fashion from the early 1900s to the 1980s, this book discusses the world of haute couture and its designers, as well as everyday dress. It shows how fashion has been directly influenced by social changes, the cinema, dance crazes, film and pop stars and prominent personalities. Clothes of many kinds are included, such as beachwear, sportswear and dress for social occasions such as Ascot and Wimbledon.
