Blending a history of costume with contemporary fashion, A History of Fashion for Children spans different time periods and cultures to explore why we care about what we wear; how fashion reflects changes in society; who makes our clothes and how; as well as the influence that fabrics, accessories, fashion magazines, and celebrities all have on how we choose to dress ourselves.

Aimed at budding fashionistas, A History of Fashion for Children is an introduction to fashion past and present, and includes reproductions of historic, modern, and contemporary clothes and accessories throughout.

Featuring a chronological walk through fashion styles of the twentieth century, it explores the work of iconic designers including Coco Chanel, Christian Dior, Jean Paul Gaultier, Vivienne Westwood, and Rei Kawakubo, among others.

This lively book celebrates fashion for all genders and body types, showcasing fashion's capacity to express identity, communicate ideas, and reflect the changes in our world.
