OK, now I'm curious. I haven't seen the book, and the descriptions I've seen range so far that it's hard to figure out that they're all talking about the same thing.
So. In terms of approach (not subject matter), is this book closer to Janet Arnold, e.g. "here's detailed, strictly documented information on specific existing pieces of clothing, which may or may not be representative, and which may or may not work for you in practice, depending on your understanding of period techniques"? Or is it closer to Sarah Thursfield, e.g. "here's how to make various style of period clothing, based on what I understand of period practice, but with some gaps filled in for purposes of the modern costumer"? Or something else? --Robin _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list [email protected] http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
