Healey, costume designer for the series, conducted extensive
research, including studying paintings and reading diaries and
wills of the period, which often listed clothing purchases and
bequests. "It's difficult to find actual items of clothing that
have been preserved, because cloth was so valuable ,at the time
that it was used and reused until it wore out," says Healey.
"Sleeves were reversed, hats were made from used pieces of
clothing. Cloth was even more valuable than skins or fur." |
