Within the confines of Manhattan were found Egyptian temples and Russian cathedrals, Beaux-Arts mansions and Gothic Revival churches, Art Deco office buildings and High Victorian department stores. Bill Cunningham started out in 1969, finding antique clothes in New York's thrift shops, street fairs and auctions, with no idea how far back he would go (he made it to 1770). These wonderful costumes are worn by Editta Sherman "the Duchess of Carnegie Hall", as she poses for his camera in virtually every corner of Manhattan. Cunningham and the Duchess do away with the strict decorum and postures of the periods ( and of fashion photography past and present) and capture in photographs and text, an intelligent blend of fashion and architectural history, a spirit of playful animation; and elusive sense of the past." (From the back cover).An exuberant change from the usual deadpan approach to the history of fashion and the history of architecture.-New York magazineLong out-of-print Collectible First edition., Penguin, 2.5<
