<DIV>Dressing Renaissance Florence is a fascinating wealth of information, which
I have spent many hours poring over cover to cover. I hope that you enjoy
it as much as I did. It is very specific to the region, and if you are
interested in Florentine costume, a must have. Be mindful that many
different things were going on in Italy costume-wise at the time, though.
The Florentines weren't into the ostentation of say, Venice or Sienna.</DIV>
