(Paris: Librairie De Firmin - Didot et Cie, 1876 and 1888), six volumes, small quarto (9-1/4 in.), three-quarter leather over marbled boards, gilt rules and top edge of leaves, marbled endpapers, raised bands; the French text illustrated with 500 plates, 300 of which are chromolithographs.

A thorough treatment of international dress from ancient times to the late 19th century with delightful illustrations.

Shelf wear; hinges show heavy use, with two top board detached; the text is crisp and generally clean, however some foxing is present; overall a very good set with fine shelf appearance.
