14th Century Italian Clothing

[Wellybex]

Hi all

Does anyone have any information about 14th century Italian clothing for both men and women? Links and names of books (and infact any information) would be very helpful as this is completely out of my normal period and I'm a bit stuck!

Thanks in advance

I found it hard to find this period clothing, especially for the common man! I ended up looking at the revival.com site. Either you find gears for the rich or gears for the later 15th C! most of the books I have found, they too only have a small amount if any! sorry this post is not really helpful!

this may help...
