Reviews
This is a thorough and much-needed study of the history of the fashion press from its beginning to the present day, with a focus on France, the UK and North America. Covering the shift from print to digital media, it will be useful to students and scholars alike and adds to the growing literature on this important topic. -- Francesca Granata, Parsons School of Design, The New School, USA
Taking us on a journey of discovery through the history of fashion journalism from the eighteenth century to the present day, this beautifully illustrated book is an most welcome addition to the subject. -- Sanda Miller, Southampton Solent University, UK.
Best brings fashion journalism history to life with concise stories of the trailblazing women who shaped that history, particularly in the twentieth century. * Taylor & Francis Online *
