Sashay into May!

In this issue, we bring you the world of medieval fashion. From ghostly garb, to vintage wear in southern France, to morality and the medieval stage - we cover the ins and outs of fashion in the Middle Ages. Read about fabulous headdresses and magic mantles. Learn about the Italian sumptuary laws and the “fashion police” in fourteenth century Florence. Find out how Frankish fashion changed and adapted in the Outremer. Understand how fashion influenced every aspect and station of medieval society. In addition to fashion, check out our May book reviews and the latest museum exhibitions opening this spring season!

Whether you are a fashionista or “fashionably challenged”, there is something for everyone in this issue.

Now, sashay....away...
