This is an interesting collection of excerpted catalog pages from the 1920s, depicting the blatant fashion evolution over the decade as skirt hemlines rose with each progressive year. There were a few frustrating points, though. I wish the book had at least some color pages. There are several pages where the original text says that a full description about the outfits is on the next pages, but that information isn't included; as a writer, I wish I had that info to know more about the cloth and other elements. One page that did have more text descriptions was poorly edited to fit on the page, cutting off text along the entire edge and rendering paragraphs as nonsensical.

Still, it's a good resource and one that I will keep around. ( )
