In doing so, \u003ci\u003eDanger in the Path of Chic\u003c\/i\u003e situates fashion within the very real social, psychological, economic and political traumas of the period.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 240\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.51 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 29, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52502450733363,"sku":"9781350275508","price":80.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/5b555c9HC89781350275508.webp?v=1760155018","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/danger-in-the-path-of-chic-violence-in-fashion-between-the-wars-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
