These are not young girls - a troubadour is a composer, and the vida, or biography, of Castelloza says she was married. But it was a fairly unconventional thing for a woman to do, in a part of the world that tends to unusual fashions, and then the picture is from a different country, so who knows what they thought she might have worn?

Hey guys, I thought that you may find these two portraits interesting: http://i192.photobucket.com/albums/z123/Castlegrounds/Portraits/pg92detail.jpg http://i192.photobucket.com/albums/z123/Castlegrounds/Portraits/pg93detail.jpg Note the cut of the "sideless surcote" and the minimal headcovering (a ribbon?).
