DESCRIZIONE:

Publisher's description:
16 costumes make up the wardrobe of this aristocratic couple of the Gothic era (c. 1150–1450). The young nobleman's garments include robes with long, full sleeves, parti-colored hose, a suit of armor, footwear, and headgear. His lady can be dressed in silk gowns, fur-trimmed robes, and a variety of elegant headdresses.

From the back cover:
The Gothic era in fashion, art, and architecture (c. 1150-1450) was the final and perhaps most creative period of the Middle Ages, opening the doors to the Renaissance. Probably best known for giving birth to magnificent churches with soaring spires, vaulted arches, and brilliantly colored stained glass windows, the Gothic period also saw new developments in the realm of fashion, including rich, brightly colored garments for both sexes. Paper doll artist Tom Tierney captures the spirit of this fertile era in a meticulously rendered paper doll collection depicting the elegant wardrobe of a noble couple.
Apparel for Maurice, the young heir to a vast estate in Flanders, includes robes with long, full sleeves; parti-colored hose; a short, fur-trimmed jacket; a suit of armor; and a variety of footwear and headgear. Margaret, his lady, can be dressed in silk gowns with full sleeves, a woolen mantle, fur-trimmed robes of silk and velvet, as well as turbans, "steeple" headdresses, and other period accessories.
Carefully researched notes accompany these detailed, accurate costumes, sure to entertain paper doll fans, delight devotees of medieval fashion, and prove invaluable to costume designers and historians.
