| The Mother Shirts is a fascinating chronicle that presents quintessential designs from all over the world and throughout history — from the candor of the Swiss pastoral to the embroidery of Mexico and the marvelous patterns of southwestern motifs, from the cultured forms of domestic Japanese clothing to the warm and scintillating fabrics of western lingerie. |
A splendid collection with a punctilious description of details and places of origin — a precious volume that will make us become thoroughly familiar with one of our closest companions, the shirt.
