The Mechanical Smile: Modernism and the First Fashion Shows in France and America, 1900-1929 Book

The Mechanical Smile Traces history of earliest fashion shows in France and United States from their origins in 1880s to 1929, situating them in the context of modernism and the rationalization of the body.
