Costume 1066-1966

---

From the author of the highly successful fashion sketchbook comes this fascinating collection of drawings ranging over ten centuries of english historical costume. Nearly one thousand illustrations, based on surviving garments and contemporary paintings and photographs, demonstrate the astonishing changes in men's and women's clothes, from the simple tunics and gowns of the eleventh century to the petticoat breeches and ostrich plumed hats of charles II's reign and the skimpy, figure hugging dresses of the 1960s. The evolution of particular garments such as the towering head dresses of the Middle Ages can easily be traced, from their origins, through their blossoming and often exaggeration, to their inevitable demise. Designed for quick reference, the book is divided chronogically into the reigns of British monarchs, and the costumes have been chosen to reflect analogous developments not only in the United States, but in continental Europe. With clear and detailed drawings, and notes to pinpoint spesific features such as fabric, decoration, accessories and cut, each costume is immediately comprehensible. This book is an essential reference for students of theatrical costume design and fashion, and will also be invaluable to amateur drama groups and anyone interested in the history of costume
