DESCRIZIONE:

From the back cover:
From the earliest times, people have worn clothes, not just for warmth, but to show their status or role in a group. Some wore special clothes for religious purposes, others dressed simply to look good and attract a partner.
Clothes of the Medieval World looks at how fashions changed as trade and inventions opened societies to new influences and a greater choice of fabrics. From royal robes to homely tunics, stunning artwork recreates the clothes worn in medieval times.
