This revealing history of corsetry ranges from the 19th through the mid-20th centuries to show how simple laced bodices developed into corsets of cane, whalebone, and steel. Lavish illustrations include line drawings and photographs from a diversity of sources, such as clothing catalogs, newspaper and popular magazine advertisements, and magazine articles. Это и многое другое вы найдете в книге Bound & Determined: A Visual History of Corsets, 1850--1960 (Dover Fashion and Costumes) (Kristina Seleshanko)
