内容简介 Against a background of historical, cultural and social change comes
Chinese Dress, a comprehensive and sumptuously illustrated book examining the extraordinary range of Chinese dress. Skillfully weaving together everything from court and formal costumes through to the working attire of the lower classes and the latest fashions of New China,
Chinese Dress tells the story of the evolution of Chinese clothing. The first section details attire worn during the Qing dynasty by the emperors and their consorts, as well as the mandarins, merchants, and their womenfolk, both Manchu and Chinese. The following sections pay particular attention to the dramatic changes in clothing that took place in China from the Republican period, including rural dress and children's wear, through to dress in New China from 1949 to the present day. An engaging and original text, Chinese Dress is the essential reference for costume historians, fashion designers and collectors, as well as lovers of beautiful clothes everywhere.
作者简介 Valery Garrett trained as a designer in London and worked for major international companies in England, and then in Hong Kong since 1973, where she was also head of Fashion Design at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University. From her early research into rural clothing worn in Hong Kong, she has become a respected authority on Chinese dress from the Qing dynasty to the present day. She lectures frequently at home and abroad, and has served as a consultant for museums and collections around the world. Her personal collection of Chinese dress has been exhibited at the Victoria and Albert Museum, London, as well as in museums in Hong Kong, Macau, Canada, and Australia.

Beverley Jackson, author, 24/4/08 Keep forgetting to tell you how good I think your last book is. There was a real need for a really complete book on the subject and you did it and did it so well.
Dr. John K. Fong "arts fan" (United States) - See all my reviews A comprehensive work on Chinese textiles in the last Dynasty of China and the early 20th Century which is profusely illustrated. It is an excellent book for any collector or person interested in this field.
Highly recommended. This book doesn't repeat information which has been previously published but gives a fresh view.
