¿Cuál es el origen de la ropa que llevamos? ¿Cómo se ha incorporado a nuestra vestimenta? ¿Por qué vestimos como lo hacemos? La bufanda se utilizaba para protegerse del calor, no del frío. Los tacones se crearon para hombres y con una finalidad practica. El chandal es originario de Francia y lo vestian los vendedores de ajos. Una de las primeras prendas de la historia fue el cinturon. Y los pendientes, de los primeros accesorios. El velo tambien puede ser de uso masculino. En España se prohibio entre las mujeres, porque lo utilizaban para todo aquello que no podian hacer a cara descubierta. Los calzoncillos eran de cuero y las bragas eran para hombres. El smoking se hizo para estar comodo... Casi toda la ropa que hoy usamos surge en su forma moderna en la Gran Guerra o en la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Pero su origen es lejano y procede de todas las partes del mundo. Este libro recorre su historia de España a China, de Estados Unidos a Africa y de Rusia a India. Y sigue el camino que va de las orejas de un faraon a las de los raperos del Bronx y de Coco Chanel a las bailarinas de striptease. Las prendas no son de nadie en particular, aunque para cada cual digan una cosa diferente. No son tantas. ¿O si? ¿Hay algo mas alla de chaquetas, camisas, pantalones, faldas, bolsos y colgantes? Ana Velasco Molpeceres es periodista, historiadora especializada en moda y profesora universitaria. En Catarata ha publicado Historia de la moda en España. De la mantilla al bikini (2021).

Sonia Capilla toma la vestimenta como objeto de estudio para trazar una historia del arte contemporáneo que visita los asuntos fundamentales que ocupan a la creación artística que se circunscribe entre finales del siglo xix y la actualidad.Este libro transita por la relacion con el paso del tiempo comprendiendo la durabilidad de lo producido, por la diferenciacion entre la poetica del lujo juicioso y la ostentacion excluyente, por la exploracion de la definicion prejuiciosamente establecida contra las corporalidades diversas y por una definicion universalista del concepto de comunidad, trasladando este formato expresivo, la vestimenta, desde el ambito domestico al centro mismo del debate. Es una historia que transcurre entre la moda y la disidencia, en la que el anonimato de las manos creadoras son tan protagonistas como los apellidos de quienes capitanean las tendencias, con la intencion de remitir la vestimenta a quienes la reciben como una herramienta transformadora.

A piece of fashion is so much more than an object. To the designer who creates it, the muse who inspires it or the fashion lover who lusts after it, that piece is part of a story. Nothing quite says style like an incredible pair of shoes. The red sole of a Louboutin, the jewelled buckle of a Manolo Blahnik, the simple perfection of a Chanel slingback, or the incredible finishes on a Jimmy Choo - these are the details that complete an outfit and define timeless elegance.
