Lingerie, 1440's style
Oct. 6th, 2007 04:02 pmI've been looking around for other examples of the types of clothing found in Talhoffer today, so I hit up RealOnline, and found this. Lingerie, 1440's style, or an example of a sleeveless bathing girl type smock, but worn in the bedroom!
Its from a series of illustrations from the Trojan War, and the English translation is "Jason and Medea dress themselves"
So this would imply that this garment she's wearing isn't just something to wear to the baths, but is her underclothing, her smock.
