Killer style : the history of how fashion has injured, maimed, and murdered / written by Serah-Marie McMahon, Alison Matthews David ; illustrated by Gillian Wilson.
"Equal parts fab and frightening, Killer Style explores the ways in which make-up, clothing, and accessories have killed, maimed, or tormented those who wear and make them. From the story of hatters felled by mercury poisoning to tulle-burnt ballerinas to the victims of the modern craze for sandblasted denim, no one is safe from these crimes of fashion."-- Provided by publisher.
