Description

This chapter explores fashion and ideas of luxury and decency among Huguenot refugees to London, concluding that dalliance with luxury goods created tensions in the west London Huguenot community leading, ultimately, to decline in group cohesion and eventual assimilation into the 'polite' society of the host community.
