There has been a rumour in the costume world here in England that Jenny Tiramani, formerly head of Costume at the Globe Theatre, had taken over the writing of Janet's books. Well, this evening, I asked her this very question. I was very clearly told that she has not "Taken over" the writing, but was merely helping Santina Levy, Janet's literary executor. I also had the privilege of meeting Tina at the same event, and together she and Jenny told me that the first of the books, on ruffs, shirts, smocks, is being worked on now. No date was given for completion, and I did not ask, as I felt I had been given privileged information anyway.
Jenny asked me to make very clear to anyone interested that Santina Levy was still the principal editor/writer, and that Jenny was merely helping her. If I get any more news, I will certainly pass it on.
