Viennese Fashion across Four CenturiesWhat we wear speaks before we do. It communicates through cut, material, and texture - but above all through color. Color engages our senses, signals belonging, and reflects social structures.Drawing on around 350 objects from the Wien Museum's unique fashion collection, this book presents a rich and fascination cultural history of color, showing how closely clothing and power are intertwinded. Color emerges as a powerful symbol of status, emotion, and identity.
