Passion for Fashion
Designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987, Blenheim is the only non-royal house in England to hold the title of palace. The book also offers an interesting--and cautionary--look at the role that arsenic, lead, mercury, and even mousetraps played in the fashions of the day.The book examines adult and children's fashions of the Palace's early period from As the storied residence of the Dukes of Marlborough--and the birthplace of Sir Winston Churchill, the legendary prime minister and a style icon in his own right--Blenheim Palace was home and host to an almost innumerable cast of chic and colorful characters.A Passion for Fashion: 300 Years of Style at Blenheim Palace provides an amusing and in-depth look at some of the clothes, underclothes, shoes, and accessories worn by many of the more flamboyant players in Blenheim Palace's 300-year history.
