About this product
Product Information
From the momentous invention of the needle some 40,000 years ago to the development of denim, from Neolithic weavers to the biggest names in the fashion industry today - here is a matchless guide to the landmarks of costume history, to the forms and materials used through the ages, as well as to the underlying motives of fashion and the ways in which clothes have been used to protect, to express identity, and to attract or to influence others. This classic study by the unrivalled authority in the field has long been established as a key textbook for students of art, costume and fashion. Its final chapter, by Amy de la Haye, former Curator of Twentieth-Century Dress at the Victoria and Albert Museum, which chronicles the trends and developments in fashion since 1940, has been brought completely up to date for this fourth edition by the fashion writer Andrew Tucker, who discusses the chief developments at the turn of the century, including the reinvention of Gucci and Prada, the influence of urban sportswear on both men's and women's dress and the phenomenon of the must-have accessory.

Not as described— only six books arrived rather than the seven described, and one was from the wrong series. Unable to contact seller as every time I tried an error message appeared, saying try again later — this went on for over a week, and I am still unable to contact the seller. Does not take negative feedback immediately either. Would not recommend this seller

Wrong item. The ISBN and photo shown on the listing did not match the edition of the book I received. When contacting the seller about this issue, they claimed that Ebay automatically uploaded the photo, but did not respond when asked why the ISBN was also wrong. Really sick of these big sellers mislisting books and being rude when you receive the wrong item. If I bought a red dress and received a blue one, that would be obviously unacceptable. Don't sell books if you can't tell the difference!

The did not send the same book cover as the listed items picture, and passed all blame and said it was because eBay auto generates the sale images.
I bought this book specifically for this cover and there was no mention in the description that the cover may be different like other eBay book sellers have.
They did not try and rectify the situation, and just said to return it, which I will.
