Chanel's jersey suits, Dior's "new look", Mary Quant miniskirts or Alaias stretch bodysuits: they have all had an impact on everyday dress, as well. In addition to the great designers, prominent role models like Marlene Dietrich or Madonna have initiated new trends. Even political events have repercussions for fashion, and this book places many fashion fads in their historical context. Decades of Fashion has captured the realm of fashion in hundreds of photographs that show not only designer creations on the catwalk, but also everyday style. Brilliant pictures encompassing every area of life and a wide range of situations tell the fascinating history of fashion.
