S. Lavrova's book "Secrets of Costume" from the "Encyclopedia of Secrets and Mysteries" series introduces middle school students to unusual facts from the history of clothing. What is the first shirt made of? What does red mean? What did the elves wear? Why didn't the Slavs wear the Roman toga? Why does the witch from "Flint" have a checkered apron? What does a "sassy" skirt mean? Why does a man need a skirt? When were underpants worn over trousers? When is a robe worn over a fur coat? The reader will find answers to these and other questions in this book. The entertaining side of the book draws particular attention. This is not a boring recitation of facts, this is reading for fun. The book would be much less interesting if it were not for the amazing illustrations that greatly enhance the narrative. The book will be of interest to schoolchildren, their parents and teachers, as well as anyone interested in the history of costume. Source:
