5.0 out of 5 stars A thorough and much needed publication!, 24 Jul 1998
By A Customer
While much attention has been paid to the period dress of Great Britain, continental Europe has been ignored for the most part. This book adds significantly to the available literature on French fashions during the last century of the French monarchy. Readers and researchers alike will find it invaluable and very interesting!
