All in all this is a great book and a MUST have if you spend as much time as me choosing my outfit everyday!

This book has given me a new perspective and puts a rich history into the things I wear everyday. A detailed clothing bible if you will, this book covers every type of fashion trend, including hot pants, all the way to every accesory or shoe one could want to know about. It gives hot new trends and old classic styles their names, talking about where things really originiated, making me feel more informed about fashion and even sound smarter!

This book is a great blend of history, factoids and advice, covering a wide spectrum of fashion from the go-go boot to the corset.
I have never discovered anything like this before and would deffinately recommend it to anyone interested in fashion, whether it is a fashion student or someone trying to improve the contents of their own closet.

Fashion 101, is a must read for any person who wants to pursue a career in fashion, is really into fashion or is just dying to know how fashion trends were made, who made it hot and how to wear it. This book gives you a detailed idea of every fashion item from a jumper dress to espadrilles (a cross between a sandal and a wedge). It tells you when it was created, how people wore it, and how to rock it well. I absolutely loved this book, because there are so many items that I never knew about, for example, the peacoat originated from sailors as part of their costume. As well, I always thought skinny jeans was a very new trend, but it actually was rocked by the Ramones and the Beatles back in the 1960′s. Fashion 101 goes in depth about every fashion trent and item and the history about it. There are so many clothes that I didnt even know about!

Its Crazy to think about the fact that there is so much history in the world of clothing. This book gave me great insight to what a love of clothing styles came from and how/when they started. Great and Interesting read.

How much thought does one really put into what they wear each day? “Fashion 101: A Crash Course in Clothing” is an examination of modern clothing styles and how they came about, claiming there’s a story about how every piece of clothing came into existence. It also includes a look at how celebrities have seriously impacted modern fashion, and is enhanced with illustrations from Ariel Krietzman. “Fashion 101: A Crash Course in Clothing ” is a must read for any aspiring fashion designer, and highly recommended for community library fashion shelves.
