His perfectly honed eye guides the reader safely through style decisions on everything from blazers and brogues to skiing and sandals. Originally published in 1964 and illustrated with delightful period photographs and drawings, it provides a fascinating window into the etiquette of men's dress in the 1960s.This book is part of the V&A Fashion Perspectives Series. Selected by V&A publishing in consultation with our world-leading fashion curators, the Fashion Perspectives series offers an access all areas pass to the glamorous world of fashion. Models, magazine editors and the designers themselves take readers behind the scenes at the likes of Balenciaga, Balmain, Chanel, Dior, Harper's Bazaar and Vogue in the golden age of couture.
