American Fashion

Pictorial odyssey through American fashion history.

If you appreciate the transformative power of American style, "American Fashion" is like a time capsule that lets you relive the glamorous journey of fashion across the decades. It offers not just a tapestry of iconic visuals, but also insightful essays that put you on the front row of America's style evolution. For fashion aficionados and history buffs alike, it's a treasure trove that captures the essence of American innovation and culture in the sartorial realm.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.
