This was an incredibly interesting read. The author looks at the history of fashion, pointing out people who helped define generations, or who stood out of the crowd for being forward thinking. Each chapter you have the main figure looked at like David Bowie, followed by someone in the same power circle who took cues from or changed the power circle in the same way as the main figure. For example, would grange even be a style if Kurt Cobain hadn’t formed Nirvana and took over the world. It’s then followed by a one page iconic look. Like Biggie Smalls. There were parts where I thought the book got too political, but it made the reader think about cloths and politics. Overall I think this was an excellent book. However, I wish there were Story credit to the little sections that read like sightings of these fashion figures. ( )
