Описание: Crinoline: Fashion's Most Magnificent Disaster is about a fashion which died a natural death more than 100 years ago, and was itself responsible for the deaths of thousands - literally fashion victims This beautifully packaged volume also comes in a slip cover and includes a 3-D viewer. A comprehensive history of the development of crinolines, this wholly unique and engaging volume weaves together contemporary accounts, 3-D photographs, cartoons and drawings from the excitable Victorian press to tell the story of Fashion's Most Magnificent Disaster. Originally a name for the stiff horse hair fabric used to add volume to women's dresses, Crinoline eventually became a blanket term for the ivory, wood, or wire structures that gave Victorian gowns their famously exaggerated proportions. Crinolines are still around today, but while they may be used to add a playful lift to the designs of fashion luminaries such as Zandra Rhodes, Vivienne Westwood, John Galliano, Jean-Paul Gaultier, Alexander McQueen and Yohji Yamamoto, few might be aware that this enduring fashion item harbors a dark and gruesome secret. Coming into vogue in France around 1856, this outrageous style would quickly come to dominate women's fashion for over a decade. However, due to their flammable materials and overwhelming dimensions which made them likely to bump into nearby candles and fireplaces, this fashion craze soon became a nightmare. It's estimated that by the mid-1860s, crinolines had caused thousands of fire-related deaths and had been blamed for the financial ruin of countless families. The rise and fall of crinolines also happened to perfectly coincide with the advent of stereoscopy, a method for creating the illusion of three-dimensional depth in two-dimensional photographs with the use of specially made viewing glasses. This book documents both of these Victorian crazes in brilliant detail, allowing readers to gaze upon some of the world's first true fashion victims in stunning 3-D.

Описание: This astonishing set of stereocards from Brian May's collection reconstructs 14 well-known Victorian works in Tate Britain using real actors and staged scenes. The stereos are contemporary with the paintings, and their existence was hitherto unknown outside the circle of specialist collectors of Victoriana. They were produced for commercial reasons -- the advent of a new painting by a great artist was big news, but most people were not able to access and enjoy the new works of art. Entrepreneurial photographers of the day reconstructed the scenes, photographed them, and sold the stereocards for profit. In addition to their beauty, they shed light on the story of these famous paintings and reveal a great deal about the society of the time. The format shows the painting itself, followed by the stereocard versions of that painting with explanatory text. The artists include Landseer, Maclise, Wallis, Millais, Calderon, Collinson, Frith, Egley, Collins, Leslie, and Haydon; the photographers were the most distinguished of that time. The book accompanies an exhibition of these cards, which will be held at the Tate from October 2014 on. With over 300 photographs and illustrations, this extraordinary volume comes slipcased with a 3-D viewer.
