Fashion - Andrew Tucker

The latest in the Crash Course series which includes ART, OPERA, THEATRE and MUSIC.
FASHION is your introduction to the mysteries and glamour of the rag trade. Ever since people realized that wearing the right frock could get you noticed by the caveman next door, the fashion industry has catered to our foibles and vanities. So here in all their glory are the style breakthroughs (nylon, the mini skirt, punk), the fashion gurus (Dior, Chanel, Versace et al) and the unfortunate lapses of taste (legwarmers, tricorne hats, DYNASTY). Tracing every twist and turn in the complicated path that leads to the way we look now, FASHION - A CRASH COURSE is the complete catwalk show in the palm of your hand and will make you a style guru, not a fashion victim.
