medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
I have found tracing costumes involves looking in fairly, at first, unlikely
sources. You may wish to have a look at:
Barron, Oswald, Fifteenth Century Costume, The Ancestor, 9, 1904
von Boehn, Max, Modes and Manners, 1, London, Alan Sutton, 1996
Boutell, Charles, The Monumental Brasses of England, London, George Bell,
1849
Haimes, Herbert, A Manual of Monumental Brasses,Oxford, Parker, 1861
Pastoureau, Michel, Le Vetement: histoire, archeologie et symbolique
vestimentaires au Moyen Age, Paris, Leopard d'Or, 1989
Scott, Margaret, A Visual History of Costume: the fourteenth and fifteenth
centuries, London, Batsford, 1986
