3 comments about Anna Piaggi's Fashion Algebra: D.P. in Vogue.
- Very interesting use of collage to convey fashion and beauty. Great for inspiring fashion layouts for magazines and students.
- Piaggi, herself, may not appear attractive or in any way sensible but this is her great appeal. Her contribution to fashion over the decades is the fantasy and immagination that make her and the creative collages within this book one of a ture muse. Take a tiny part and convert clothes into having your own style and true fashion!
- No point wastuing words on this, the previous line says it al

1 comments about Ottoman Embroidery (Victoria and Albert Museum Studies).
- The vast majority (about 85%) of this book is the 155 colored plates and catalog, some with enough detail to see individual stitches. The catalog information includes the dimensions of the piece, materials used, and stitching technique. Pieces range from the 16th-19th centuries.
There are only 8 pages of background info on culture and history. If you want more on that, see Flowers of Silk and Gold by Krody.
If you'd like to try your hand at one of these styles, the last section of the book describes the various techniques and gives directions and clear, easy to follow diagrams.

1 comments about Embroidering Identities: A Century of Palestinian Clothing (Oriental Institute Museum Publications).
- This is a very interesting direct and informative book steeped with information about the historical women's garb of the Holy Lands. Anyone studying textiles, women's studies, art history and religion, as well as those interested in sewing technique would find this book highly informative. Particularly enjoyable to me, were the beautiful color photographs as well as the descriptions of the parts of the clothing and the fact that each region had a type of dress specific to it. I hope that high quality images on CD or slides of each of the outfits shown along with details of the cloth will soon be available for educational use. As we all know it is of paramount importance to preserve the creativity of each and every culture in our world today because so many cultures are being destroyed by conflict. Iman Saca and Maha Saca deserve much commendation in their role in preserving the historical clothing of the Palestinian women of the Holy Lands.
