[h-cost] wheelfarthingale

Re: [h-cost] danish costume museum online

My guess is that the danish winter and the huge rooms on the mannorhouses could be quite chilly in the mornings, so a hood could be quite usefull. Men wore caps on their heads when wearing banyans, so why not a hood for the ladies.. Bjarne - Original Message - From:
