A virtual pageantry of the many ways in which military styles inspire and influence contemporary fashion
The transformation of military clothing into popular retail fashion has a long history. In fact, the designs of some of today's most popular styles, worn for the most peaceful purposes, actually originated in clothing intended for warfare. In a campaign to dress well, combat and battle rarely, if ever, enter the picture. This book celebrates the enduring appeal of military-inspired clothing and acts as a reference guide and source of inspiration for designers and fashion followers alike.
Australian-born Timothy Godbold is an international fashion-world and interior-design insider with a lifelong interest in military style. From 1989 to 2005, he was a senior designer of clothing for Ralph Lauren. More recently, he has established his own interior-design and fashion consultancy.
