So many books are called _A History of Costume_ that we refer to them
by the author's name.
Copyright infringement is if you copy and sell or hand out a portion
of the book. With titles, you're talking about trademark. In that
case, will it be confused with the original product?
I doubt 7-Up will sue for classrooms to stop playing the game of the
same name on rainy days. Likewise calling a fashion show "The Way We
Wore" or "A History of Costume" is not going to harm sales of the
books. You might get in trouble if you called it Microsoft or Disney
because people would assume you had their sponsorship.
Are you planning to make a video of the parade and distribute it? If
that's the case, then you would want to do more research on names.
