I've got the Fashion book, then saw the two-volume set on special offer (I
think it was 9.99 GBP) at Borders. Despite the fantastic price, I flipped
through it and saw only a couple of extra pictures that weren't in the
Fashion book and decided it wasn't worth having both. But of the two, I
think the two-volume set may be slightly bigger.
I don't see how Borders could sell the two volumes separately as they are
packed together in a box cover - they probably only list it as the first
volume for some computer-related reason. But unless they're going to send
you a box cover with only one book in it, which would be very peculiar
indeed, I'd bet it's both. Plus, the whole thing was shrink-wrapped in
Borders - I had to hunt round the whole shop to find one that was open so I
could look at it.
Hope this helps,
Kate

This may have been covered before, but just in case:
Is there any real difference between this edition of the Kyoto Costume
Institute's "Fashion":
<http://www.taschen.com/pages/en/catalogue/books/design/all/facts/01839.htm>
And the two volume in a slipcase edition?:
<http://www.taschen.com/pages/en/catalogue/books/design/all/facts/04401.htm>
I ask because I've had the former on order with Borders.com for over
two months and it doesn't look like they'll be able to get it. The
first volume of the second edition is listed, but no mention is made
at the Border's site that it includes both volumes. Please advise.
Thanks in advance,
Allison T.
