The history of Fashion: From Royal Courts to Fast Fashion, The History of Clothing, Dress, Style, Textiles, and Global Fashion Culture (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798257854811)

Fashion has changed with humanity itself. What people wore in ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia, Greece, Rome, medieval Europe, and later centuries was never only about covering the body. Clothing reflected power, belief, class, beauty, work, and the values of each age, making fashion one of the clearest ways to read history through everyday life.

With black and white images showing a wide variety of garments and styles across time, this book offers a clear look at how dress evolved from the ancient world to the present. It is a simple and engaging introduction to the long story of fashion, showing how clothing moved from tradition and ritual to industry, mass culture, and modern global style.
