Talk about fashion

Fashion is not a new concept. It responds
to multiple needs: to cover up, to embellish,
but also - and perhaps most importantly - to
position ourselves in society. It is an expression
of our freedom!
Designed as an accessible introduction,
this lively guide offers a sociological, practical,
and historical overview of fashion,
retracing its crucial dates, principal players,
and noteworthy events. The author offers
the tools and vocabulary necessary to
appreciate contemporary styles, and to
better understand how to create your own
look. She connects the dots between this
form of creativity - one of the most popular
in the modern world - and its links with
fields such as music, film, media, and new
technologies.
