Pretty Reading: American Fashion Accessories

Starting in the twentieth century, the American accessory designer looked to Europe and then said, "I can do better." American Fashion Accessories was commissioned by the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) and edited by Style.com's Candy Pratts Price.  Telling the stories of America's forward thinking accessory designers-from functional to purely decorative-it reveals a century of objects of necessity and desire.  The book currently retails for $31.50 and is available at Amazon.com.
