Off-the-shoulder gowns were popular, as was costume jewelry. Assyrian females liked fringed accents on their tunics and gowns, while Greek and Roman ladies of fashion were partial to loose robes that frequently revealed upper and lower limbs. Head coverings from helmets and shawls to wide-brimmed hats were \u003ci\u003ede rigueur.\u003c\/i\u003e Organized according to region--Egyptian, Assyrian, Greek, Roman, and Greco-Roman--the finely detailed drawings are accompanied by brief identifying captions.\u003cbr\u003eA valuable reference for costume historians and designers, this extensive pictorial collection will delight fashion enthusiasts as well.","brand":"Dover Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47106528510192,"sku":"9780486138688","price":10.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780486138688_p0.jpg?v=1763737589","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780486138688","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
