The result is an original portrayal of modernising interwar Romania through the representations and self-representations of its middle-class fashionistas." -- Magdalena Craciun, University of Bucharest, Romania "An exemplar of the more nuanced, multifarious and plural Fashion Studies today, The Women of 'Little Paris' is remarkable for its consideration of fashion and all the visual arts, as well as popular and urban culture, literature and the press. The work is a fitting memorial to one of the experts in this field, the late Djurdja Bartlett." -- Peter McNeil, University of Technology Sydney, Australia " The Women of Little Paris is a valuable and fascinating book and the information presented within its pages is rich and detailed.
