Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, Hollywood Deco Fashions of the 1920s, traces the experiences of a young French woman along the path she followed in 1919 from a very small village in the south of France to the grandeur of Hollywood’s motion picture industry during its most electrifying and dazzling period—its golden age of the 1920s. Travel companion to a wealthy woman, Marianne Dunat’s rapture when experiencing the elegant fashion shows in New York and Paris evolved into a deep desire to develop her innate artistic skills. These skills were honed at a prestigious Hollywood fashion-design school to a level that eased her entry into designing costumes at one of Hollywood’s most notable motion picture studios of the early 1920s. The reader will be guided along artistic learning curves beginning with the most elementary form of sketching, to portraying in great detail the rudimentary components of the female head and body, and to the creation of exquisite apparel. The extensive span of Ms. Dunat’s artistry is self-evident and should be of significant appreciation by a wide audience, particularly that segment of the populace having a bias for chic apparel that symbolizes Hollywood’s grandest epoch—the 1920s. The illustrations in this work in conjunction with the story line establish its uniqueness in the arena of 1920s’ fashion design.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The costume and decor of the Ballets Russes took Paris by storm in 1909 and fuelled a mania for the exotic, for vibrant patterns and rich, luxurious textiles. It only took the genius of designers like Paul Poiret and Natalia Goncharova to transform these into garments that were bold, inventive and quintessentially modern. Ballet, theatre and cinema all lent ideas to mainstream fashion, as did artists of the avant-garde such as Sonia Delaunay."--BOOK JACKET.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Saucy flappers and manic Charlestons, dramatic silent movies and the big-band euphoria of early jazz: the 1920s must surely rank among the most dashing eras in American style history, and this volume documents in ravishing detail the clothing that helped make the decade so stylish and glamorous. Sumptuously illustrated with more than 600 original photographs, drawings and prints, Fashion Sourcebook 1920sfocuses largely on the Art Deco period, with its beautiful beaded dresses, cloche hats and t-bar shoes as worn by the fashionable flappers and the "bright young things" of the time. Hemlines and haircuts both became drastically shorter, mirroring the changing social roles: at the decade's outset, women gained the right to vote and Prohibition led many otherwise law-abiding Americans to break the law of the land rather than abandon their gin fizzes. This title will prove an indispensable reference work not only for students of fashion but for all fashionistas seeking ideas for constructing a look of carefree liberation. An accompanying introduction outlines the major themes within fashion during this period, surveying its most famous designers and assessing their creative contributions.
