Book
Fashion and age : dress, the body and later life / Julia Twigg.
A fascinating account of the relationship between dress and age and an investigation into the changing ways in which the fashion industry interacts with older generations. The book is driven by the desire to extend the remit of the study of fashion to encompass clothing as part of everyday bodily life.
