Whilst the wildly extravagant and colorful elite fashions parodied in contemporary satire had significant influence on wider dress habits, more austere garments produced in darker fabrics also reflected the ascendancy of a puritan middle class as well as a more practical approach to dress. With the rise of print culture and reading publics, fashions were more quickly disseminated and debated than ever, and the appetite for fashion periodicals went hand in hand with a preoccupation with the emerging concept of taste. Richly illustrated with 100 images and drawing on pictorial, textual and object sources, A Cultural History of Dress and Fashion in the Age of Enlightenment presents essays on textiles, production and distribution, the body, belief, gender and sexuality, status, ethnicity, and visual and literary representations to illustrate the diversity and cultural significance of dress and fashion in the period. 410 0$aCultural histories series. 606 $aClothing and dress$xHistory$y18th century 606 $aFashion$xHistory$y18th century 615 0$aClothing and dress$xHistory 615 0$aFashion$xHistory 676 $a391.209033 702 $aMcNeil$b Peter 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910818099803321 996 $aA cultural history of dress and fashion in the age of enlightenment$94095314 997 $aUNINA
