20th Century Fashion offers a stylish retrospective of the last hundred years through 400 fashion advertisements from the Jim Heimann Collection. Using imagery culled from a century of advertising, this book documents the unrelenting pace of fashion as it was adopted into mass culture, decade by decade. Featuring an in-depth introduction, chapter text, and an illustrated timeline, the book details the style-makers and trend-setters—from couture to the mass market—and explains how historic events, design houses, retailers, films, magazines, and celebrities shaped the way we dressed. Text is provided in English, French, and German.
