About this product
Product Information
From Victorian Times to the Present Day. Cosmetics have been used to increase attraction since Ancient times whilst Compacts have been a symbol of love for generations but especially since the 1920s. Madeleine Marsh chronicles the development of cosmetics from a secret shame in the 19th century, to a handbag essential in the 20th. She tells the stories behind famous brands; explores the role of makeup in peace and war - showing how our daily beauty rituals reflect the changing roles of women across the decades. This lavishly illustrated history also provides a guide to collecting vintage compacts and cosmetics revealing the old makeup that you shouldn't throw away. AUTHOR: Madeleine Marsh is renowned for her quirky style as well as expertise which has seen her star in several TV series, including 20th Century Roadshow and write several best-selling books for Miller's. Madeleine is passionate about vintage clothes and accessories, not just for collecting but wearing and using. This is the first in her series on Women with Style. The next book in the series will be Women's Hats. 150 colour photographs
