Men's Fashion: The Complete Sourcebook Hardcover September 23, 1996 by John Peacock (Author). Thames & Hudson; First Edition (September 23, 1996)-HARDCOVER IN CELL WRAPPED DUST JACKET-CONDITION GOOD EX-LIBRARY BOOK Language : English Hardcover : 216 pages Libraries never seem to have enough costume sources to satisfy performing arts students and faculty. Peacock's (Twentieth Century Fashion, LJ 11/1/93) latest book concentrates on men's fashion and accessories from roughly the French revolutionary era to the present (1789-1995). The 1000 colored line drawings are hand-rendered, showing a variety of front, side, and rear views of day wear, sportswear, evening wear, negligee, and underwear, as well as accessories and hairstyles. Brief biographies of designers, tailors, and outfitters and a bibliography of related books conclude the work. While a laudable effort, the book is vexing in its arrangement by 16 chronological periods rather than by category of dress, especially because the silhouetted call-outs with keyed descriptions are interspersed at eight chronological divisions. The result is a lot of time-consuming page flipping. Nonetheless, this is recommended for most costume collectionsFollows the development of men's clothing from the French Revolution to the present, and describes fashion trends and formal and leisure wear
a wonderful reference book period by period. I think no other book is as good as this concerning costume of men with full detail even though it is just drawn by mr. Peacock.. I think it is fully research .

The Definitive Men's Fashion Book
John Peacock has done a suburb job of researching and locating examples of clothing, accessories, and hair styles for men from 1789 to 1995. This book could help costume designers for movies and plays, historians, fashion collectors, or others who want details of all the fabrics and styles worn and when they were worn. Chapters are roughly divided into decades with drawings of each style. Descriptions follow each drawing telling the year, where the style originated, and then the different parts of the clothing from hat to boots or shoes. There are some 1100 color illustrations on the 216 pages. I find this book invaluable. I purchased it to help identify my old family pictures from the 1800's and 1900's. It enables me to pinpoint decades for my old photos. I am very happy to have it and thankful for all the research and drawings done by John Peacock!
