Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Corsets became the foundations of fashion more than 500 years ago, and their influence lingers to this day. Three dolls and 29 historically accurate costumes demonstrate the impact of lingerie on modern couture. Side-by-side comparisons range from a 16th-century "bodie" to 1950s "waspies" and even underwear as outerwear in the 21st century.

Synopsis:

Three dolls and 29 historically accurate costumes illustrate the influence of lingerie on modern couture. Side-by-side comparisons range from a 16th-century "bodie" to "waspies" of the 1950s. Includes a gentleman "dandy" doll.
