5 out of 5 stars yes yes yes :)   November 22, 2007

When I'm looking for visual resourced books to help inspire my costuming I would have to say this one is one of my favorites on the shelf for 18th Century clothing. br /I like to have books that have heaps of historical content to help construct my costumes but I also value the 'picture books' to help the creative/visual aspect of desgining costumes! This is one of those :)

An overblown production that does not deliver. A waste of photography and an even bigger waste of money.


4 out of 5 stars Reference to 18th century costuming   July 23, 2007

I make porcelain dolls and found this book invaluable for costuming the dolls in authentic dresses.The settings for the costumes is also very inspiring br / br /Angonita Blue Ribbon Dolls

If you have a penchant for 18th century fashion this is the book for you. As I turned each page I was more and more enamoured with what I saw. The most delicious fabrics and designs, accompanied by authentic furniture and settings. br /You can just imagine Marie Antoinette swishing down the corridors of Versailles in one of these magnificent creations... absolutely wonderful!!
