About this book
Women's dress in France, from the Gallic and Gallo-Roman period down to Challamel's own day, is traced in this history. The English version by Mrs. Cashel Hoey and John Lillie appeared in London in 1882. The chapters move through the Merovingian and Carlovingian periods, the influence of the Crusades and the reigns of John and Charles V, naming garments such as the tunic, the bliaud and the cotte-hardie. An introduction first considers Paris as the home of fashion and early fashion journals.
