Product Overview

The Way We Look is a textbook that helps the reader through the process of visual literacy by focusing on the Apparel Body Construct, the "visual form presented by the interaction of apparel on the human body". Published in 1987, it shows the fashion of the era in color and black and white photos and illustrations, a technical perspective as to how patterns, fabrics, and shapes look on people. It also includes a glossary, index, and references for the reader.

This copy is acceptable condition; it's a very straight, clean, tightly bound copy but with some underlining and writing in the first chapter. It's a fun, visual trip back into the 80s.
