You may well be right...but how can you tell? Cathy Raymond <ca...@thyrsus.com>>>>> The white area has two shades of white. The upper section of white indicates that the camicia is of a sheer material and that the lower white section indicates that there is a lining, it is probably a shift and most likely sleeveless or straps. Also the closing area seems to look like there might be two layers. This shift/lining may have also been a means of support but that is a theory. Oonagh's site on shift under camicia for a late period Italian. http://www.geocities.com/technically_naked/elusive_smock.htm De _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
