This volume of style clues for fashion detectives weaves fascinating elements of social history into tales of how, why, and when fashions evolved. Hundreds of sequential illustrations highlight the style flourishes that identify garments for men, women, and children as products of their individual periods. The images are accompanied by highly readable -- and often humorous -- comments and explanations by author and illustrator Betty Kreisel Shubert. A noted fashion historian, Ms. Shubert is a columnist for Ancestry Magazine and has designed clothes and costumes for stage and screen as well as hotels, restaurants, and casinos all over the world.
Ranging decade by decade from the nineteenth through twentieth centuries, this book offers a simple way to date photographs and clothing. It also provides background that makes less-accessible histories of costume easier to understand. This second edition, enhanced with a selection of new photographs, offers a valuable resource for costumers, vintage fashion enthusiasts, social historians, genealogists, and collectors of nostalgia items. The easy-to-follow format makes it a great browsing book even for those who are unversed in fashion design and history.

"A great reference book. I can't wait to put it to use " -- Maureen Taylor, The Photo Detective

"Fascinating I couldn't put it down. The author shows how social development influenced how we dress. I would certainly include this book in my theater classes for its value to future costumers, directors, and actors." -- Allen M. Zeltzer, Professor of Theater, Emeritus, Cal-State University at Fullerton

Perfect!
Scent: Unscented, Size: 6 Count (Pack of 10)
I have a 6 year old and we still bring wipes in the car or in my purse wherever we go because you never know when you need one. This is the perfect size and just what I was looking for. It doesn’t have scent, seals well, soft and just enough moisture. I usually wear small purses and this is a savior when we travel abroad.

Wipes from those expensive sushi restaurants
Scent: Unscented, Size: 6 Count (Pack of 60)
I never really buy things without reading reviews, but for some reason, I didn't read reviews before buying these. Really glad that these turned out to be something I actually really like. Bought these little wipes to bring on my Disneyland trips because I realized you can never keep your hands clean enough while at the parks. These wipes are the size of little hand wipes you get from regular restaurants... the cheaper ones... the little square Fresh Naps. However, the quality of these wipes are of those long ones that come in the bags that they give out at sushi restaurants. They feel like cloth (soft and thick) and not paper so they wont rip while you're using them to wipe your hands. These are fragrance free, which means they smell like fragrance free lotion. I don't feel like they leave a sticky lingering after feel, but it's also currently 100 degrees so that may be a factor because I usually do feel that weird sticky feel after using mostly any hand wipes. That cleaned a little, but not actually clean feeling is honestly the worst. One little packet is like the size of the 2nd gen Ipod nanos (a little shorter) or like two ipod shuffles. They are really small and pretty much perfect for travel. 6 wipes in a packet is perfect for one full days use if you're out and about at a theme park with kids all around you that like to touch and lick everything with their little sticky, greasy fingers. The wipes have a shelf-life of 2 years. Mine was made in 2025... bought mid 2026... idk if I'd be able to use all 60 packets before they "expire", pero like, what does that even really mean anyway?

Great for travel
Scent: Unscented, Size: 6 Count (Pack of 30)
I honestly hate dry wiping. I’m glad these are so small to carry in my bag just in case I have to go #2 in public. They stay moist the whole time. And since they come in bulk, i had them for a while and they were still moist! They’re soft and strong too.

Great for Travel!
Scent: Unscented, Size: 6 Count (Pack of 10)
These are great hand wipes! They clean and without a sticky residue. I keep a pack in my purse and use them for travel. They are durable and do not break easily, plus are nice and soft. I chose the unscented ones and they are perfect.

Added to My Daily Routine
Scent: Unscented, Size: 6 Count (Pack of 10)
These wipes came in clutch on my recent international travel adventure. I used them to wipe dirty hands, snotty noses, airplane tray tables, public bathroom surfaces, and sweaty bodies when showers were not readily available. I love how small and portable the packages are and that they are so easy to add to a purse, backpack, carryon bag, or stow in a pocket of a jacket or vest. I always had them with me and even rescued strangers when a public bathroom had run out of soap.
