The world's first groundbreaking dictionary that explains with illustrations. This book contains 3,000 illustrations and 6,000 vocabularies. The dictionary introduces illustrations with fashion terms from the work environment in Japanese, American and British English. The book covers a variety of topics in materials, apparel, fashion goods and business terms.
In addition, there are the conventional functions of knowing the meaning of the names, and this ground-breaking illustrated dictionary makes it possible to look up the words visually. Explanations of historical and cultural backgrounds are inserted in the columns if illustrations and words alone are insufficient. Japanese words are accompanied by Roman texts for the reading.
The dictionary shows that words are used in Japan, the USA and the UK, with individual illustrations for each fashion term.
The explanation columns have been inserted where appropriate for cases where an explanation is considered insufficient with just a list of illustrations and names, such as differences in the usage of terms in the three countries, where the word is a registered trade mark, it has a historical, or cultural background.
