Oxford history of Art book of Fashion was a book of the general history of fashion that leads to the modern fashion industry. Although the book discusses many important factors it leaves out many other important points as well. The language is a bit pretentious and can be hard to read. It provides insight into the history but doesn't really dive properly into it.

Just like any other Art History book, is not a quite easy book to follow. There are topics more interesting than others, but overall was a pleasant read. I was expecting a book that wold talk about the ways of dressing, but learning about the cultural changes and economic factors that influenced great names in the history of fashion was actually a great way to start.
Since my mother tongue isn't english I had to search some words that were fashion vocabulary but nothing that I'm not used to
