They continue, even today, to spark our curiosity and imagination. Their enduring popularity is no doubt partly due to the iconic portraits in which they are depicted in magnificent style, in farthingales and ruffs, furs and jewels, codpieces and cloaks, and vast expanses of velvet and silk. Far from being mere decoration, fashion was pivotal in the communication of status and power. It was used as a tool in securing and holding the tenuous Tudor throne and as a competitive weapon in the factions, intrigues and love-affairs of the court. This book presents new information about the fashions of the Tudor dynasty, offering fresh insight into their social and political milieu. Histories of Kings and Queens complement stories of unsung dressmakers, laundresses, and officials charged with maintaining and transporting the immense Tudor wardrobes from palace to palace. Evidence from rare surviving garments and textiles, original documents, fine and decorative art, and archaeological findings enhance our understanding of the Tudors and their courts. Handsomely illustrated, this sumptuous book contextualises Tudor dress within the buildings in which it was worn and fills in gaps in our knowledge of the period and its fascinating historical figures. 600 30 $a Tudor, House of. 651 0 $a Great Britain $x History $x Clothing $x History $y 16th century. 650 0 $a Clothing and dress $x History $z Great Britain $x History $y 16th century. 650 0 $a Clothing and dress $x History $z Great Britain $x History $y 16th century. 651 0 $a Great Britain $x History $y Tudors, 1485-1603. 650 0 $a Clothing and dress in art. 650 0 $a Art, Tudor $x Themes, motives. 600 36 $a Maison de Tudor. 650 6 $a Vêtements $x Histoire $z Grande-Bretagne $x Histoire $y 16e siècle. 651 6 $a Grande-Bretagne $x Histoire $y 1485-1603 (Tudors) 650 6 $a Art Tudor $x Thèmes, motifs. 600 37 $a Tudor, House of. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00213879 650 7 $a Clothing and dress. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00864680 650 7 $a Manners and customs. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01007815 651 7 $a Great Britain. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204623 648 7 $a 1485-1603 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 710 2 $a Historic Royal Palaces (Great Britain), $e sponsoring body. 941 $a 1 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20230630011122.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=7882C6E0170B11EEA3C6068B3DECA4DB 994 $a Z0 $b NIUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
