Dressed to Kill: British Naval Uniform, Masculinity… par Amy Miller
An extremely interesting and valuable book, featuring a chronology of the uniforms of the British Navy and a large number of really excellent photographs - and some sketches indicating the construction of the garments (mostly the coats, fair enough) at the back. Anyone interested in writing or costuming for the period will want this. My only regret is that I have it as an ebook, when this really wants to live on my coffee table.
A phenomenal study of the dress of the Royal Navy in the period between 1748-1857. Masterfully researched and well written, Amy Miller uses original garments to show the development of the Royal Navy uniform. Miller does an excellent job at showing how contemporary civilian fashion trends initially influenced the development of the Navy's uniforms, and how later on, the Navy would be at the forefront of fashion trends, influencing civilian clothing. I would highly recommend this book to anyone interested in the Royal Navy, military uniforms, or the history of mens fashion. The high quality color photos and patterns of many original garments make this book a must have in any collection.… (plus d'informations)
