My love of "killer fashion"

I have written about different "killer fashions" on this blog before:

• killer-clothing.html
• sample-pack-makeup-history-lipstick.html
• sample-pack-makeup-history-rougeblush.html
• sample-pack-makeup-history-eye-makeup.html

​I find the lengths we as humans have gone to be "stylish" insane. Any new little snippet of information about such-and-such a person in such-and-such an era doing such-and-such to be fashionable I gobble up like a cat sneaking into your tuna fish sandwich. It is something Costume Design adjacent that I do as a hobby. If there is ever a deadly fashion section of jeopardy I will gladly be your phone a friend if you promise to pay for another few books on the subject. (Does jeopardy have phone a friend or is that just Millionaire?) 
Recently I finally got my hands on a small book I have been wanting for quite some time:
Killer Fashion by Jennifer Wright. I went down to my local used book store (go green!) and found they had a copy! I have been eyeing this book as it blends together two of my favorite "odd" loves; Edward Gorey style art/poems and deadly fashion facts. This little 55 page book is a joy at every page turn.
It has also given me some more deadly fashion topic ideas to research. For instance, did you know in the 1920s some women would manicure their nails with radium to make their nails glow and sparkle in the low light of the night clubs?! Maybe I need to make an addendum to my nail polish history post.
