Dressing the Part: A History of Costume for the Theatre.

Rating:
Summary: The best and most comprehensive book on theater costuming!
Review: Dr. Fairfax Proudfit Walkup was my grandmother and I grew up with this book, learning about what people wore through out the history of the world. The little stories that add to the reasons why people wore what they did made the book delightful reading as well as very informative.
