It features multiple examinations of specific clothing items as well as studies in the weaving, embroidering, and exporting of clothing and textiles around Medieval Europe. It straddles a wide range of popular subjects including masculinity, the history of women, religious clothing, and the representation of clothing and textiles in literature, tapestries, and arts. The dress - and what it can tell us about the role of the individual within society – of nuns, courtiers, merchants, brides, warriors and more, are all explored. Later volumes are not included.
