Hi Kate,
a while back on the Italian Renaissance Costuming yahoo group, Salvi posted a
link to a scan she had made of this image. It's HUGE...my copy is 26.4Mb.
I've done a quick search of the archives and will post it here for you (be
warned - it's huge!)

Hey Cynthia - I am curious if you know or if you know someone who could give me
input on two fabrics I am thinking about using for recreations of Civil
warish/frontier dresses. Maybe a better way to ask the question would be
where in the 1800 - 1900 period would these fabrics best be used and
Thank you. A friend of mine is going to make the tulips for me and I

Hahahahaha... that should be YOKE, not yolk! I just made 2 fried eggs and
was eating them when I posted. Funny
Yolks are for eggs. Yokes are for shirts. And oxen. :-)

When I was growing up in the Pleistocene, my brothers told me they were
called fairy hooks, and were there for the purpose of grabbing (and
ripping the guy's shirt, I suppose). No idea what they might be a remnant

Hi!
I was wondering... On modern shirts, in the center back, right below
the wide pane they use for lining the shoulders, there's very often a
little fabric loop. What is it for, or what is it an artifact of?
Thanks!

Great scan! I too was almost positive I'd seen a larger image posted on
some list somewhere, though I could easily be thinking of some other chemise
with similar black ribbons.
It looks to me like the black ribbons are laced through loops on the stem
end of each tulip, so surely the tulips
I'm trying to think of catchy names for a historical fashion parade -
showing under and outer garments from the last 500 years. Any ideas?
Thanks, Aylwen
Well, the undergarments section should be called A Brief History.

A dear friend of mine is going to cast pewter tulips for me. Since the
gown that I made is amethyst, silver/pewter will look very spiff. I'm
also planning to color the tulips - a friend of mine makes SCA award
medallions and paints them. They still look metallic, but the color is
