Book Synopsis



A-Z Style Blunders You'll Love to Hate

Revel in the bad decisions of others with this collection of history's most bizarre fashion trends that will leave you asking "Who would even wear this?" Featuring historical context and illustrations pulled directly out of the past, fashion historian and influencer Karolina Żebrowska appraises each look with an equal amount of thoughtfulness and humor.

From 16th-century German hats shaped like plates to the 1950s bullet bra, this unique capsule not only uncovers the intention behind these kooky, sometimes oppressive, always outrageous trends but theorizes how they all went so horribly wrong. Perfect for fashion fanatics, history buffs, and everyone in between, this book is sure to provide hours of entertainment.
