{"product_id":"pazazz-nina-edwards-9781789146851","title":"Pazazz","description":"Pazazz examines the complex meanings of white clothing through history. Delicate and impractical, white cloth in the past was difficult to obtain, as well as to keep clean. It is a symbol of purity but also of class superiority, privilege and the display of leisure. It represents both the menace of the Ku Klux Klan and the transition of a bride to the married state; it can be the appropriate dress for mourning and for shrouds. White lace is ethereal; straitjackets are tough. White clothing has been a marker of innocence and simplicity for women but also of calculated, high-maintenance fashion; for men, white can be evidence of power. White is a startling absence of colour, the epitome of elegance.","brand":"Reaktion Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51257596412192,"sku":"9781789146851","price":17.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0753\/2812\/7264\/files\/9781789146851.jpg?v=1781104247","url":"https:\/\/bookcorner.com\/products\/pazazz-nina-edwards-9781789146851","provider":"The Book Corner","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
