Description

This book explores interconnections between high literary modernism and the revolution in dress design of the early twentieth century. New and 'liberated' lifestyles and a fascination with 'inventive clothes' united diverse writers, photographers, and art critics at the time. Studies of F. Scott Fitzgerald, Man Ray and Virginia Woolf are included.
