- 4 Want to read
"In this book, Aileen Ribeiro surveys the clothing worn by the middle and upper classes throughout Europe in the eighteenth century and discusses what this meant in terms of social definition and identity. Ribeiro, one of the world's premier historians of dress, also looks at such subjects as developments in retailing and distribution, etiquette, the rise of the dress designer and couturier, the evolution of ready-made clothes, fancy dress and the masquerade.
This new edition updates the text and bibliographical material in the previous highly acclaimed volume and adds many new, full-colour illustrations."--BOOK JACKET.
