American Fashion

So apparently I've been partying since February, and I've finally slowed down enough to give my blog a little attention.  

  American Fashion is a comprehensive look at our nation's fashion as understood through cultural and world events that affected not only our lives as Americans, but as well as the rest of the global community. This publication details how women's fashion evolved through the 20th century, bringing us up to present time.  Commissioned by the CFDA, the Council of Fashion Designers of America, American Fashion gives one insight period by period as to why the American woman is dressed the way she is today.


I've only just begun to delve into its three hundred plus pages, including full-color photographs that give necessary visuals, but I already feel like I have a better understanding of fashion as we know it here in America.
