Telling stories drawn from across history, The Colour of Fashion delves into the significance of colour in dress, and explores how the symbolism has shifted over time.

The story of fashion is woven through with colour.

Vividly illustrated and compellingly written, The Colour of Fashion uncovers the colourful history of style, through 10 shades and their key moments in the spotlight – including Beyoncé in empowering yellow chiffon, Valentino's signature red gowns, and Audrey Hepburn in that Little Black Dress – and shows that colour means so much more than meets the eye.
