Prima edizione
Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Faintly bumped at lower tips else FINE in glazed pictorial boards, 32-ppgs photos, 499-ppgs, indexed. This is the first book in English to deal comprehensively with German fashion from World War I through to the end of the Third Reich. It explores the failed attempt by the Nazi state to construct a female image that would mirror official gender policies, inculcate feelings of national pride, promote a German victory on the fashion runways of Europe and support a Nazi-controlled European fashion industry.
