Book of Rules and Sports Almanac - Bing W. Broido - Paperback Book

The goal of this book (purportedly) is to be a sort of chronicle of fashion history, and it kind of is. La Croix uses his extensive knowledge and love of archival material to amass a unique collection that shows his perspective on the development of fashion. The book is organized into sections based on different patterns, styles, and inspirations that pairs La Croix's couture creations with a variety of other designers' pieces from various historical periods. La Croix's vision of fashion history may be more personal than objective, but this kind of account of what makes history so interesting.
