I mostly do pre-17th century stuff, so I tend to think of earlier
portraitists as costuming inspirations (although I'd love an excuse to
dabble in the 18th century! ;o).
My modestly-caffeinated brain insists, this fine a.m., that some of my
favorite "garb artists" are (in no particular order):
Hans Holbein (father or son)
Bronzino
Sofonisba Anguissola
There are others, but I'll need to wake up some more before I can recall
them ;o)
--Sue in Montana, where it's finally Spring, and the trees are working on
making leaves and my tulips are blooming.....
