English edition DK Modedesign Editorial Review
**** "Fashion: The Definitive Visual History" offers a visually arresting glimpse into the world of fashion, making it a stunning addition to any coffee table or study. Many customers lauded its beautiful design and high-quality content, emphasizing its informative nature. The book is filled with a wealth of photographs and detailed descriptions spanning various aspects of clothing, fabrics, and historical contexts, which enhances its appeal for fashion enthusiasts and students alike. However, while the book excels in its presentation and depth of information, it has drawn some criticism for its geographic focus. Reviewers highlighted that the book primarily centers on European and American fashion, leaving a gap in the representation of global fashion history. This oversight has led some to perceive it as lacking a comprehensive view of the subject matter, particularly for those expecting a more diverse and worldwide exploration of fashion trends. Despite these critiques, the book's strong visual appeal and solid information base make it a valuable resource for those interested in the cultural history of fashion, particularly in the Western context. It has proven to be a thoughtful gift, particularly for aspiring fashion students and individuals wanting to deepen their understanding of fashion's development through the ages. **
