Critics Review
The “clothes we wear… function as a language that can, to some extent, be read,” asserts journalist Kane in her comprehensive debut survey of clothing styles that “reappear time and time again” on city streets and in high-fashion magazine spreads. In each brief entry, Kane distills a style’s history, signature garments, and role in popular culture… Students of fashion will be enlightened and delighted by this detail-rich resource, and even novices will be persuaded that “we are all stylists, assembling meaning to find our tribes.” * Publisher’s Weekly *A genius concept aimed at enhancing everybody’s wardrobes, Kane’s brilliantly structured Style Thesaurus models a wide range of fashion combinations for all occasions. * Waterstones Best of 2023 blog *
