My knowledge on many of the specific clothing styles or national practices is very limited. Even if you have only a comment or short paragraph to add, I'd be very interested. In addition, please let me know of any other interesting bibliographical lists that you may have come across that you think would be helpful to add here. A great deal of historical research is needed to ansewer the many questions that I have come across and that many of you have inquired about. In many cases I have included questions in the text of the various pages, hoping that readers may be able to offer insights.
Some information is available on the iternet, but disappointly little.
Hopefully the bibliographies I am collecting here will aid future library research.
