Hardback. Zustand: Fair. Beautiful, sculptural objects, shoes are powerful indicators of gender, status, identity, taste, and even sexual preference. Our choice in shoes can be aspirational, even fantastical - and projects an image not just of who we are, but who we want to be. Feet are made for walking, but shoes may not be. Featuring extensive new photography, this is a beautiful and authoritative guide to the history and culture of footwear. Iconic creations by celebrated designers sit alongside masterpieces by unknown craftsmen in this book. Embracing both men's and women's footwear, from the Chinese lotus shoe to laser-printed contemporary shoes-as-sculpture, Shoes: Pleasure and Pain engages with the cultural significance of shoes - the source of their allure, how they are made, and the people who buy and wear them. Contributors from a wide range of disciplines consider subjects as diverse as ballet slippers and fetishism, shoes and ceramics, traditional shoemaking, and the obsessive shoe collector. The book also includes a comprehensive discussion of the history of shoe design, and case studies including Marie-Antoinette's shoe collection and the footwear of the Maharajas.…

Förlagsband, dek. skyddsomslag i gott skick frånsett minimal skavning av överkanten på baksidan. Stockholm, Bokförlaget Signum, 2009. 8:o. 156 sid. Illustrerad i färg. Med ordlista, personhistoria, käll- och litteraturförteckning samt bildkällor. Innehåll: "Tidigt 1800-tal i Sverige", "Empirens döttrar", "Underkläder", "Till vardags", "Allt för fest", "Brud och bröllop", "I väntans tider", "Fritid och nöje", "Klädd för döden", "Efter empiren", "Appendix". - - - Empirmodet kännetecknas av klassicerande plagg, mjukt fallande från en hög midja. De skira plaggen, burna med platta skor, förmedlar frihet och rörelse. För första gången på evigheter sågs kvinnor i tunna och kroppsframhävande klänningar utan hårda livstycken och styvkjortlar. Stuss och ben anades genom de svepande textilierna. En djup urringning som framhävde brösten förebådade 1900-talets sexualiserade mode. Det nya favoritmaterialet bomull som var relativt billigt möjliggjorde ett mode för alla; de första slit- och- slängprodukterna såg dagens ljus. Den ursprungligen franska empiren, i Sverige ofta kallad Karl Johanstilen, ter sig som en frisk fläkt mellan l'ancien regimes stela klädsel och nyrokokons återgång till artificiella silhuetter. Empirens döttrar är en uppslagsrik kulturhistorisk skildring av dammodet i Sverige under de första 25 åren av 1800-talet. - - - "Daughters of the Empire. Culture and fashion in the early 19th century", illustrated, hardbound book in Swedish.…
