The paperback edition of this captivating story of Tudor dress, and
the people who made and wore it The Tudors are some of the
best-known figures in history. They continue, even today, to spark
our curiosity and imagination. Their enduring popularity is no
doubt partly due to the iconic portraits in which they are
depicted, in farthingales and ruffs, furs and jewels, codpieces and
cloaks, and vast expanses of velvet and silk. Far from being mere
decoration, fashion was pivotal in the communication of status and
power. This paperback edition of Tudor Fashion presents insights
into the fashions of the Tudor dynasty. Histories of Kings and
Queens complement stories of unsung dressmakers, laundresses, and
officials charged with maintaining and transporting the immense
Tudor wardrobes from palace to palace. Evidence from rare surviving
garments and textiles, original documents, fine and decorative art,
and archaeological findings enhance our understanding of the Tudors
and their courts. Handsomely illustrated, this sumptuous book
contextualizes Tudor dress and fills in gaps in our knowledge of
the period and its fascinating historical figures. Published in
association with Historic Royal Palaces
