Pharaonic Egyptian Clothing (Studies in Textile and Costume History, Vol 2)

Rating:
Summary: excellent guide for the interested reader
Review: Written by a textile specialist, this is an excellent guide to Pharaonic Egyptian clothing. The book deals with the construction of items, based on surviving material (cloths, dresses, headgear, aprons, straps). Well illustrated in black and white, a glossary explains the terms found throughout the book, and a bibliography for further reading is also provided. Highly recommended for those with an interest in clothing and Ancient Egyptian society.
