But still much worth the purchase for the AMAZING colour pictures of actual garments. I have the original book (saw the two-volume one in Paris this summer and it looks exactly the same book).

This is a two-volume reprint of the original "Fashion" which was about
720 pages. I have it. 20th century fashions, if I recall correctly, make
up over 1/3 of the book as there are more 20th century fashions in
existence than 18th and 19th.

I was wondering what proportion of the content was 18th century and what

was 20th. Any comments?
