London Society Fashion 1905?1925: The Wardrobe of Heather Firbank
By : Cassie Davies-Strodder

Book Synopsis :
Downton Abbey?era fashion is explored through the life and extensive wardrobe of real-life Edwardian London socialite Heather Firbank (1888?1954), whose treasures, bought from the world?s leading couturiers and the very best dressmakers and tailors in London, were gifted to the V&A after her death. The collection forms an invaluable record of a stylish and wealthy woman?s taste from about 1905 to 1920, and actually served as inspiration to Downton Abbey?s Emmy Award?winning costume designer, Susannah Buxton. Beautifully illustrated with new photography of Firbank?s evening gowns, tailored suits, and hats, the book also features contemporary photographs and pages from Firbank?s own fashion cuttings albums.
