Two items of note for those of you interested in my lectures on medieval
dress, and are within range of either Ohio or Southern California:
-- I will be giving a full day of lectures (five in all) in Oxford, Ohio, at
Miami University, on Saturday, Oct. 11, 2008. The website for registration
isn't quite ready yet, but I figured some people would appreciate advance
notice of the date and place for your calendar. My topics will be as follows:
1. The Gothic Fitted Dress
2. The Greenland Gored Gown
3. Will the Real Sideless Surcoat Please Stand Up?
4. The 15th Century V-Necked Gown
5. When Medieval Meets Victorian: The Roots of Modern Costume Sources
-- I have been approached for a possible appearance in the Los Angeles area,
early in 2009. This, too, would be a full day consisting of five lectures,
similar to the above, though probably with some slight variation in the
lecture lineup. The organizer would like to get a sense of how much interest
there is so she can choose a suitable venue. If you think you might want to
attend, please let her know. You can post here and I'll pass the word along,
or contact her directly (with a copy to me, please): Kerri, at
