llustrator Gladys Perint Palmer's witty captions and striking artwork tell the history of the world in gleefully stylish fashion. The Fashion Bible shows us that it has all been done before, by everyone from Cleopatra to Marie Antoinette, but couture is still fabulous, darling!

With chapters spanning the evolution of style from Ancient Rome and Egypt to the 21st century, The Fashion Bible not only presents an entertaining (and unlikely) look at yesterday's fads and contemporary trends, but also reveals how world history continues to be told through the latest fashion designs. With masterful sketches, Perint Palmer offers readers her educated impression of designer creations, while her sassy captions poke fun at the world of fashion - a world, which, as Perint Palmer puts it, is fifty percent hype and fifty percent humiliation.

In The Fashion Bible, Perint Palmer’s wit and striking, unique illustrations bring history and fashion to life. This edition is one-of-a-kind and prêt-a-porter!
