I have purchased a few of these sourcebooks the illustrations are beautiful and they are very informative. It is arranged by dates and covers daywear, designer, underwear, sportswear and even wedding dresses. Fantastic!

Even though I wish that these were photos, I recognize just how much work went into compiling this book and others that John Peacock has produced. This is a great book to help one understand visually subtle changes in fashion over the decades of the 20th century. I found it very interesting and feel that I will constantly reach for it for inspiration and ideas.
