nonfiction (fashion history 1920s-80s). Information-rich background history for the decades in question, as well as a look at how certain staples (hats, purses, belts, LBDs, swimwear, nightgowns, etc.) have changed over time. Photographs show a lot of detail, but overall not as great for sewing inspiration, since there were very few items that I would be inspired to adapt.
If you've ever been curious about the development of scarves over the 20th century this is one for you. I also found it inspirational with ideas and pattern design. I may use a few as launchpads for myself. Slightly unwieldy coffee table book, this is covered in cloth with one of the scarf patterns from the book.
