Book Review: The Golden Age Of Couture

Image: accessory-addict.blogspot

The Golden Age of Couture, Paris and London 1947-57 edited by Claire Wilcox is an intricate look into what is considered the golden age of couture.  The golden age of couture took place during 1947 to 1957, the ten years in which Christian Dior designed couture.  While the beautiful pictures of the elegant glamorous clothing of the time is enough reason to buy this book, the in depth history of the great couturiers of the time, such as Cristóbal Balenciaga, makes for an interesting read.  I highly recommend this book for anyone to read or as a perfect gift for anyone who loves fashion.
