Annie Holt identifies the roots of contemporary Euro-American practices of costume design, in which costumes are an integrated part of the dramaturgy rather than a reflection of an individual performer’s taste or status. She argues that in the period 1820–1920, as part of the larger project of modernism across the artistic and cultural field, the functions of "clothing" and "costume" diverged. Onstage apparel took on a more specific semiotic task, acting as a fresh channel for the flow of information between the performer, the literary text, and the spectator. Modernizing Costume Design traces how five kinds of artists – directors, performers, writers, couturiers, and painters – made key contributions to this new model of costume design. Holt shows that by 1920, costume design shifted in status from craft to art.

Excerpt from Costume Design and Illustration This gives the much-desired, well pressed newness to the garment. To keep this effect, beware of too rounded curves. After the Sketch is finished, some accents should be put in, in places where Shadows would naturally be; this gives added interest to sketches. From the first, observe and work for texture. Notice how delicate, light lines express thin material better than heavy. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
