Re: [h-cost] Book review requested - Nineteenth Century Fashion indetail
The paperback has no color photos. I did locate the 1975 hard cover edition at used bookstores on line for around $25. Kim Nancy Bradfield's _Costume in Detail 1730-1930_ - but she doesn't show photographs, it's all line drawings. The first edition hardback has photos in color. I own the second edition hardback, which has no photos but more costume drawings. Haven't looked in the paperback edition. -- Carolyn Kayta Barrows -- Blank paper is God's way of saying it ain't so easy being God. -- ___ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume ___ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume

I've just got some bonus money and I'm planning on spending some of it on books. I'm looking for a book that will show me internal construction details of Victorian era clothing preferably using detailed photos. Have you seen the Cornell University CD of 19th century American dresses? It was produced in 2001, so I'm not sure if it is still available. http://www.news.cornell.edu/chronicle/01/6.28.01/McMurray-CD-ROM.html I just printed off from my CD the decades that I wanted and stuck them in a notebook for handier reference.

For interior details, check out Costume in Detail: 1730-1930 (Paperback) by Nancy Bradfield Amazon has it.

I'm looking for a book that will show me internal construction details of Victorian era clothing preferably using detailed photos. Looking on Amazon I found Nineteenth Century Fashion in Detail by Lucy Johnston, so for those who have a copy does it include these sort of details (or it is external decorative details like embroidery or ruching). My final question is Amazon UK has two books listed one that's in print http://tinyurl.com/oobv6x and one that's out of print http://tinyurl.com/oapatu Does anyone know if there are any differences between the editions apart from the cover?
