Cover von Robin Netherton & Gale R. Owen-Crocker: Medieval Clothing and Textiles 7 (PDF)
The best new research on medieval clothing and textiles, drawing from a range of disciplines.


This year’s volume focuses largely on the British Isles, with papers on dress terms in the Middle English
Pearl; a study of a thirteenth-century royal bride’s trousseau, based on unpublished documents concerning King Henry III’s Wardrobe; an investigation into the ‚open surcoat‘ referenced in the multilingual texts of late medieval England; and, based on customs accounts, a survey of cloth exports from late medieval London and the merchants who profited from them.

Commercial trading of cloth is also the subject of a study of fifteenth-century brokers‘ books, revealing details of types, designs, and regulation of the famous silks from Lucca, Italy. Another paper focuseson art, reconsidering the incidence of frilled veils in the Low Countries and adopting an innovative means of analysis to question the chronology, geographical diversity, and social context of this style.


Robin Netherton is a professional editor and a researcher/lecturer on the interpretation of medieval European dress; Gale R. Owen-Crocker is Professor of Anglo-Saxon Culture at the University of Manchester.
