GOOD book in GOOD unclipped dust jacket One important aspect of men's fashion is the degree to which styles common to women's costume have been adopted: the cote-hardie, for example, and the tall hats with ribbons and feathers so popular in Elizabethan times. In the resoration period high-heels shoes and frilled decorations were favoured by both sexes, as were jewellery and make-up. These styles, as well as the influence of military costume on men's fashion, through the Classical, Victorian and Edwardian periods led to the mass-manufactured, ready-to-wear garments following World War One, and the impact of 'casuals' in the 1930s, are all described and illustrated here.
