Bring No Clothes - Charlie Porter
In the blurb on the back cover of this book Olivia Laing writes 'Charlie Porter is a magician, a radical historian who has pulled away all the threadbare myths about Bloomsbury, using clothes as a way of revealing the vulnerable bodies and wild new ideas of Woolf and her circle.'
Porter brings us face to face with six members of the Bloomsbury group. Each of them offers fresh insight into the constraints and possibilities of fashion today: from the stifling repression of E. M. Forster's top buttons to the creativity of Vanessa Bell's wayward hems.
