I have a new article over at GeekMom about how historical reenactors (and people in actual history) stay cool in the summer even though they wear more layers than we typically do. #history#historicaldress#historicalcostume#publichistorygeekmom.com/2024/07/dont...
Find out how the linen and cotton fibers of historical clothing helped keep people cool in the summer heat.

A mid #18thC infant's cap with insertations of Hollie-point. This example is Scottish, specifically Glaswegian, which suggests Hollie-point was not "peculiarly English" as per published literature. #18thcentury #historicaldress #18thcenturylace #dresshistory #textilehistory #ScottishHistory
#FridayFancies #FridayNightFrills Obsessed with this 1740s "tight back" aka English Gown at the MFA (Access. No. 43.1642a-b), altered from a long sack. I love the extravagant scale of the brocaded silk & the generous silhouette! #18thcentury #fashion #historicaldress #dresshistory #textilehistory
