## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Finally after all of these years!
*by M***S on April 9, 2015*

I have been looking for this costume book forever. I used to check it out when I was in high school every few weeks. It has so many drawings from so many times. My only caution is for parents: there are a few women's costumes that, though I believe are accurate, are also bare chested. Other than that, after years of looking I am thrilled to have my best costuming friend back in my life. The wide period range has been fabulous for costuming!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great reference!
*by G***H on March 21, 2013*

Great reference for costumer or sketches of period clothing. I checked it out from the library and loved it and had to buy myself a copy to keep.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ good
*by I***N on September 19, 2019*
