カスタマーレビュー
Excellent
The episode about tartan was fascinating. I learnt more about my Scottish heritage and how tartan has become a symbol for it and much more. Thank you, Avery and everyone involved.
Like an interesting friend
Fascinating, fun and addictive. Made me realize that clothing has real roots and real meaning. And the power to empower.
Excellent series about clothes, society and history
This is a deceptively wide ranging look at society, history and people, but from the point of view of iconic articles of clothing.
Not at all interested in fashion, I was skeptical, but Avery Trufelman never fails to exceed expectations.
Recommend this to anybody with a vaguely curious mind.
