Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. "A Study of Costume" is a comprehensive and scholarly exploration of the history of human attire, tracing the evolution of clothing from the earliest civilizations to the early 20th century. Elizabeth Sage provides a systematic analysis of how social, political, and economic shifts have shaped the way people dressed across various cultures and eras.The work examines the transition of styles with meticulous detail, covering the draped garments of ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome, and moving through the complex structures of the Middle Ages, the Renaissance, and the Victorian period. It offers insights into the development of textiles, the refinement of tailoring, and the symbolic power of dress as a marker of status, occupation, and identity. By documenting the changing silhouettes and ornamentation of different centuries, Sage illustrates how costume serves as a living record of human history and cultural expression.Written for both students of design and those interested in social history, "A Study of Costume" remains an essential reference for understanding the aesthetic and functional aspects of clothing. It highlights the enduring impact of fashion on society and remains a valuable resource for anyone studying the decorative arts or the historical progression of style.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
