[h-cost] bells on garments

[E House]

The whole houppelande discussion got me in the mood for something: I think I 
wanna wear a bunch of bells on a gown.  At the hem, or maybe tiny bells all 
over, like spangles.  Funfunfun. Cold medicine. I'm thinking late 
14thC/early 15thC would be the right era for it, but I've never really 
looked into anything involving bells before.  Anyone know of a style (other 
than houppes, which I just plain don't feel like making) that would work 
well with this?  Any literary mentions of it?  Illuminations/paintings?
