This volume of style clues for fashion detectives weaves fascinating elements of social history into tales of how, why, and when fashions evolved. Hundreds of sequential illustrations highlight the style flourishes that identify garments for men, women, and children as products of their individual periods. The images are accompanied by highly readable -- and often humorous -- comments and explanations by author and illustrator Betty Kreisel Shubert. A noted fashion historian, Ms. Shubert is a columnist for Ancestry Magazine and has designed clothes and costumes for stage and screen as well as hotels, restaurants, and casinos all over the world.
Ranging decade by decade from the nineteenth through twentieth centuries, this book offers a simple way to date photographs and clothing. It also provides background that makes less-accessible histories of costume easier to understand. This second edition, enhanced with a selection of new photographs, offers a valuable resource for costumers, vintage fashion enthusiasts, social historians, genealogists, and collectors of nostalgia items. The easy-to-follow format makes it a great browsing book even for those who are unversed in fashion design and history.

"A great reference book. I can't wait to put it to use " -- Maureen Taylor, The Photo Detective

"Fascinating I couldn't put it down. The author shows how social development influenced how we dress. I would certainly include this book in my theater classes for its value to future costumers, directors, and actors." -- Allen M. Zeltzer, Professor of Theater, Emeritus, Cal-State University at Fullerton

Love it!!
Size: Iphone 17, Color: Light Blue
I got the Miracase Magnetic iPhone 17 Case in light blue, and it’s excellent. The case fits my 6.3-inch iPhone 17 perfectly and works flawlessly with MagSafe chargers and accessories. The military-grade protection gives me confidence — it’s shockproof, scratch-resistant, and feels very durable without adding unnecessary bulk. I also love that it comes with a screen protector included. The anti-fingerprint translucent matte finish keeps the phone looking clean while providing a nice grip. It’s easy to install, feels premium, and the color is subtle yet stylish. If you want solid protection with MagSafe compatibility and a clean, modern look, this is a great choice.
