从19世纪末到20世纪初的世纪之交,时装界风云变幻。王室、贵族和上流社会从私人手工缝制转为热衷于高级定制,传统大师和创新之辈各领风骚。即使在这样“百花齐放”的霓裳盛世光景之中,美籍英裔高级定制服装设计师查尔斯·詹姆斯(Charles James,1906~1978)也依然能够脱颖而出,确立个人风格,在时装界独树一帜。 From the late 19th century to early 20th century at the turn of the century, the fashion industry is changing. The royal family, aristocrats and upper class turned from private hand-stitching to keen on advanced customization. The traditional masters and innovators each played a leading role. Even in such a colorful scene, Charles James (1906 ~ 1978), a British-British senior custom designer, is still able to stand out, establish his personal style and stand out in the world of fashion.
