Reviews for The Wonderful World of Clothes

An in-depth, inventive look at how we dress all over the world, profiling a huge variety of clothes, celebrating cultural diversity and exploring technology and recycling. Wittily illustrated by Damon herself, there's little like it on the market. -- Fiona Noble * The Bookseller *
