Virginia, a renowned antique clothing shop in London, has been a go-to for fashion designers, models, stylists, and fashionistas for years. With its carefully curated selection of perfectly preserved heirloom dresses, coats, lingerie, and accessories, Virginia's rare clothing is collected by designers for inspiration and by serious clothing collectors (both museum curators as well as celebrities). This stunning volume highlights the best of the collection, scaling the heights of Jazz Age fashion with chapters on sequined dresses, cocktail wear, bridge coats, opera coats, evening jackets, and house coats. Through sumptuous still-life photographs of the clothes and opulent film-set interiors, Dressed to Kill invites readers into a magical world. The rare and precious beaded dresses, feathered capes, and silky kimonos are beautifully documented, highlighting the craftsmanship and ornamentation of the pieces. Historical information is accompanied by guidelines for the care of antique clothing. With essays by leading fashion authorities, this is a must have book for collectors, connoisseurs, and those who believe in evening style"--Publisher's web site.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status   Hawaii State Library Art, Music & Recreation 391.20904 Ba   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kealakekua Public Library Adult Oversize 391.20904 Ba Oversize Checked In Add Copy to MyList Waialua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 391.20904 Ba   Checked In Add Copy to MyList
