Patterns of Fashion 4: The Cut and Construction of Linen Shirts, Smocks, Neckwear, Headwear and Accessories for Men and Women C. 1540-1660


I fell in love with this book in the shop at the V&A the other day. I adore ruffs so having a decent pattern that is accurate would be wonderful. My library only has two womans clothing additions and one for men and they are all in the stores which is maddening as its only on the third floor of the library but it costs eighty five p and takes a week for someone to go upstairs and get it. I've ordered the womans 18th 19th century one so that'll be available for my collection next week.
