Moda Goa: History and Style

Wendell Rodricks places the history of Goan Costume in the spotlight for an archive that has never been researched. Through the book, Rodricks traces the early settlers, the world’s first Indo-Western clothes and the final return to Indian dress after the Portuguese left Goa.Through illustrations by European travelers, a wealth of photographs by Mark Sequeira and Bharat Ramamurtham and access to the fine clothing and jewelery of Goans, Wendell Rodricks makes a debut as author to reveal a rich tapestry of history, clothing and passionate prose taking the reader to the beauty and back waters of India’s golden state.
