"Dressed in Fiction" traces the deployment of dress in key fictional texts of
the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, from Defoe's "Roxana" to Hardy's" Tess
of the D'Urbervilles" and Edith Wharton's "House of Mirth." Covering a range of
topics, from the growth of the middle classes and the association of luxury with
vice, to the reasons why wedding dresses rarely ever symbolize happiness, the
book presents a unique study of the history of clothing through the most popular
and influential literature of this time.
