Description
The fashion, history, and development of Jewish dress tells a story that spans the globe and crosses many cultures.
In this colourful volume, Jewish communities - particularly those established for centuries in Eastern Europe, the Middle East, and North Africa - are revealed through their garments.
Stunning photographs spin tales of family traditions and religious devotion, with a special section dedicated to jewellery worn by brides and grooms.
Superb photographs of specific garments, with many close-up details, are juxtaposed with rare contextual photographs from The Israel Museum's archives to create a tapestry of a people revealed through textiles, costume, and images.
More than 350 revelatory illustrations tell us how these precious articles of dress were originally worn.
