Chinese Dress in Detail | Sau Fong Chan
Pickpick

This one is just lovely. Beautifully illustrated, fascinating stuff about construction techniques, a range of different ethnic dress included, and -- better than the 18th-Century Fashion book also from the V&A, many of the items have both a close-up of detail and an photo showing how the whole item looks. In the other book, a lot of them are only represented by a closeup and a sketch.
