Textiles, Fashion, and Design Reform in Austria-Hungary Before the First World War - Houze, Rebecca

Filling a critical gap in Vienna 1900 studies, this book offers a new reading of fin-de-siecle culture in the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy by looking at the preoccupation with embroidery, fabrics, clothing, and fashion-both literally and metaphorically. The author resurrects lesser known critics, practitioners, and curators.
