Paperback. Etat : Good. The period of Tudor rule in England (1485-1603) marked the appearance of an unprecedented opulence in fashions worn by royalty and members of the nobility, with social rank often reflected in attire. This monumental study by a brilliant and imaginative scholar examines that colorful period in fashion history, from the reign of Henry VI through that of Elizabeth I.Because continental fashions heavily influenced clothing styles of the English nobility, the text includes brief introductory reviews of garments worn in France, Italy, Spain, and Germany. Each chapter focuses on costumes of a particular period, meticulously delineating not only the elegance of court dress but also describing the quotidian garments of the middle and lower classes -- from tradespeople and common sailors to the peasantry and even court jesters. In addition to investigating an extraordinarily wide range of fashionable garb, the author meticulously describes elaborate headgear, hairstyles, jewelry, collars, footwear, and other wardrobe accessories.Composed of two books bound as one, this carefully researched and profusely illustrated volume includes 1,000 black-and-white figures (including diagrams showing the construction of various garments and head coverings), 24 halftones, and 22 full-color plates, nearly all taken from contemporary sources, which enliven this authoritative and exhaustive study of period clothing, an indispensable resource for fashion designers and historians and a dazzling pageant of living history for the general reader.…

Paperback. Etat : Good. The Christian church's earliest vestments were hardly distinguishable from the everyday dress of ordinary people in ancient Rome, but in time, ecclesiastical dress acquired its own distinguishing characteristics. This comprehensive reference by noted English costume authority Herbert Norris traces the evolution of clerical attire through the centuries until the end of the 1400s.The meticulously researched text is enhanced by more than 270 of the author's own illustrations, including 8 in full color, adapted from originals but specially redrawn to accentuate essential features of the garments. The vestments are treated in the approximate order of their appearance in liturgical ritual, beginning with the simple alb and including the pallium, chasuble, cassock, surplice, mitre, and many other items. Footwear, crosses, headgear, rings, gloves, and other accessories are also depicted and described in detail. Replete with fascinating historical facts and lore, this volume is an indispensable reference for students, scholars, and anyone interested in the history of ecclesiastical attire.…

[From back cover] Costume authority, stage designer, and scholar, Herbert Norris envisioned the history of wearing apparel as a series of great tableaux which he brilliantly described in an encyclopedic four-volume history of fashion. The present study?part of that monumental effort? presents a rich and inclusive panorama of clothing styles of the nineteenth century. The exceptionally detailed narrative focuses not only on clothing worn during the reign of particular monarchs, but also provides commentary on the social milieu and activities of the period. Beginning with the last years of King George III (1800-1820) and concluding with the latter part of Queen Victorias reign (1877-1900), Norris charmingly details a host of nineteenth-century apparel: a French court dress (1818), a gentleman?s cloak (1823), the Garibaldi shirt (1861), an evening dress (1865), and a Parisian gown (1895). Also included are tennis, hockey, golfing, bathing and cycling costumes, and scores of other outfits, underclothing and headgear. Ably illustrated by Oswald Curtis, this comprehensive survey is enhanced by 200 finely detailed black-and-white line illustrations and twenty-seven full color drawings. Exuberantly written and highly readable, this masterful study will provide an invaluable resource to anyone interested in the history of fashion and costume.…
