<font face="Courier New, Courier" size=2>A Day of Lectures on Medieval
Dress<br>
<br>
Robin Netherton is a researcher specializing in Western European dress of
the Middle Ages. Since 1982, she has given lectures and workshops on
medieval clothing for academic audiences, historical societies,
reenactment groups, and other organizations. An experienced costumer as
well as an academic researcher, she addresses both the practical aspects
of medieval clothing construction and the significance of costume in
history, art, and literature. Her lectures emphasize approaches for
researching medieval dress and ways to avoid common myths and mistakes.

Honestly, Robin has told me that she will go to any area if there is
enough interest. She's lectured all over the states. Thus, if
we want her to come here, we simply need to get up a large enough
group. One of the things she teaches is how to create your own
gothic fitted dress. She does a full day's workshop on just that,
with people ending up with a pattern for a dress at the end of
it.<br><br>
