Each term is defined and put in context to give the reader a clear understanding of fashion terminology. More than 270 common fashion terms are explained and illustrated, from practical day-to-day words such as lapel, pattern, and crewelwork to conceptual terms such as postmodernism. The Visual Dictionary of Fashion is like having a personal translator for rag-trade shop talk.
