An excellent resource
Crammed full of illustrations and descriptions of dresses, coats, hats, footwear, lingerie, and accessories such as jewellery and handbags. Menswear and children's clothes are included, but the focus is on women's wear. We can see changes in the desired silhouette, the movement of hemlines upwards and downwards, and the influence of the war on styles and trims. JoAnne Olian's introduction provides an excellent summary of the trends in the period covered.A useful reference book that's also a pleasure to dip into.

An interesting glimpse into the past.
This book contains womens, mens and children's fashion from Sears catalogues. It's interesting to see the prices and read the descriptions as they were of the clothes. It is a nice book that is perfect if you have an interest in fashion history.
