  • Alps, the Danube and the Near East-Frank G. Carpenter 25.08.2026 8год 47хв
    The world, if we choose to see it so, is a complicated picture of people dressing and undressing.

As you will see, I have devoted myself entirely to civil costume—that is, the clothes a man or a woman would wear from choice, and not by reason of an appointment to some ecclesiastical post, or to a military calling, or to the Bar, or the Bench. Such clothes are but symbols of their trades and professions, and have been dealt with by persons who specialize in those professions. (Summary excerpted from Introduction.)
