Histoire du costume en Occident

Histoire Du Costume En Occident

Auteur(s) : François Boucher

New augmented edition

From the rough prehistoric clothing to the studied harmony of ancient costume, from the serious clothing of the Middle Ages to the sophisticated and fanciful fashions of modern times, this book offers a transversal analysis of this complex phenomenon that is costume, from its material data to its psychological motivations.

By bringing together iconography and textual sources, the author of this book draws up a complete panorama of the subject and studies the historiographic sources, the question of manufacture, the evolution of the forms of clothing in relation to the history of morals, its function as a social sign as well as its taxonomic role and its status as a reflection of the personal expression of the individual.
