Icons of Style in 100 Garments

Behind nearly every item in the modern wardrobe is a first of its kind - the definitive edition, often created by a single company or brand. Some, like the T-shirt, have been designed for a specific purpose such as sport, farm work or protection, before making their way into everyday usage. This book examines, garment by garment, the most important and famous of these products - their provenance and history, the stories of their design, the company that started them and how the item shaped the way we all dress today.
