Abstract:
Clothes take the ordinary human body & fashion it into something remarkable. Born to the same anatomical legacy, each generation has used garments to shape itself in the image of its own particular desires. Taking different body parts in turn, 'The Anatomy of Fashion' invites us to view ourselves as we have been in the past
