Subject:
An extraordinary research on shirts from private
collections, put together with meticulous care,
taste, and passion by two twins, who are also both
designers.
This volume introduces us to a variety of shirts
from different continents - from west to east -
creating a multiethnic current, which has influenced
contemporary design.
How can one not be fascinated by the history that
this category of clothing preserves in its memory -
by the candor that Swiss pastoral shirts emanate, by
embroidery from Mexico, by the marvelous patterns
that decorate southwestern shirts, by the cultured
forms of domestic Japanese clothing, by the warm
fabrics of western lingerie?
Hence, a splendid collection with a punctilious
description of details and places of origin - a
precious volume that will make us become thoroughly
familiar with one of our closest companions... the
shirt.
