Using the rental section of Amazon has sure saved me tons, I mean tons of money for my college child. I am widow and was worried about how I was going to buy those expensive books, then I learned about RENTING. This is a great

 I used this book for a costume history class, it was very helpful, but I couldn't take it to class with me at risk of it falling apart. The front cover looks like it is going to fall off. The 30-40 pages or so have water damage so they are wavy and bumpy. When I ordered it, I think it said Used- LIke New or in Good condition, but they may have been hyping it up a bit much. Most of the pages after the 40 page mark and on are perfect, though so the book is definitely still usable. I added video of just the first few pages that have water damage so they are stuck together, and the photos show how the pages are separating from the cover.

I love this book, I use it as my teaching source for my Fashion History class in our theatre and film department. I wish I had known about it in time to get the instructors version through school. It has a good vocabulary section for fashion terminology and my students appreciate the references from historical time periods that influenced contemporary fashion pieces. The context of fashion as human history works well to engage budding directors and designers in seeing clothing as the extension of characters within any particular time period. I wish I had access to more of the interactive materials.

This book is an excellent and detailed source on costumes through the ages. Not sure why the others reviews are a bit harsh on it, but I am more than pleased. I don't find it so awful in that it lacks bunches of colorful prints- heck, if all the drawings were colorized this book would be a very expensive resource.I'm a simple person, and I'm very pleased with the entire book.

I thought it was “necessary” to upgrade from the pink-covered version +/- 2005. The layout is clearer and some of the images are better. That’s really it and I would’ve been fine with my older version.

A lot missing paper and pictures

Rented this for a class and it came in perfectly acceptable used condition and it's pretty informative although it glosses over some pretty influential periods in fashion history or combined many decades into a single chapter of information.

There is no comparison with any book out there. If you are a costumer, reenactor, or history buff you should have this on your shelf, period.
