<< ... Almost every book I've been able to look at purporting to deal with
"Tudor Dress or Costume" slides over the Reign of Henry 7th (1485-1509) as

8th! >>
I second that, except I'd like to expand it to 1485-1530. Judging by most
resources, the 16th century begins sometime in the mid 1530s or early 1540s.
Although mind you, I'm far more interested in the Franco-Flemish stuff.
With a nice sprinkling of Dutch. My wish-list submission--completely
unsuited to the request made to the list--is for more English-language
costume books devoted to non-English areas.
