hi Penny, turns out most of what I found on-line is circular, back to an article "History of Matrimony", from some Italian wedding planner company!!! Will look more tomorrow (Wed) in printed sources. No help on either Philippa OR Anne!
Although I did find one reference in Spanish < http://www.lebrelblanco.com/anexos/a0040.htm > that Anne was the first to use black for mourning (previously white = mourning) hmm. there's politics there... modern, Basque vs Navarre; don't know if/how it would affect the historical stuff, well, the costume detail stuff... anyway, will look in my costume library tomorrow and see if I can find anything. chimene On May 10, 2011, at 1:35 AM, <penn...@costumegallery.com> <penn...@costumegallery.com> wrote: > Chimene, > > Do you have a source for that info? > > Penny Ladnier, owner > The Costume Gallery Websites > www.costumegallery.com > 15 websites of fashion, costume, and textile history > FaceBook: > http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Costume-Gallery-Websites/107498415961579 > > _______________________________________________ > h-costume mailing list > h-costume@mail.indra.com > http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
