Reader's note

A beautiful retro King Penguin accounting 19th Century fashion, complete with beautiful illustrations throughout--one among a bounty of classic books and gorgeous vintage King Penguins on our 2nd hand bookstore!

"That everybody is now fashion-conscious to a degree which a few years ago would have been thought incredible is due less perhaps to the innumerable books on the history of costume which have been published during recent years than to the influence of the films. It is true that the producers of historical films still sometimes make grave blunders, but on the whole they do their best to get things right, and some of the larger companies have permanent staffs of experts and extensive libraries of material. That is one of the reasons why fashion plates are becoming rarer and rarer. Many thousands have made their way to Hollywood, and our only consolation must be the prospect of seeing them come to life before our eyes, to see this favourite or that simpering in the robes of the 40's or sweeping majestic in voluminous draperies through the salons of the Second Empire"
