Beautifully written, this book really does reveal the visual culture of fashionable clothing over 300 years.

All in a book that deals authoritatively with many different styles and types of paintings, from the sixteenth century of Caravaggio to Rembrandt to Alma-Tadema and Paul Poiret. This book is the result of a lifetime of looking, thinking, reading and then doing all three again with a skill that makes even the apparently most clichéd of portraits take on a different life. Her analysis of dress and social mores in art, such as her masterful unpicking of Hogarth’s 'Marriage A-La Mode' and Rake's 'Progress', are just two of the many commentaries on paintings we think we all know, but find that Ribeiro knows more.
