I don't know if this counts, but a number of years ago, a fellow from (I think) a Missouri Opera company 'revived' a system used in the 19th century. The guy called it the Sartor system. I think he self published it. It isn't really a historical study, but it might be of interest.
I think I have my 'facts' right - I am sure someone else will correct me if I am wrong. He also wrote the "Annotated Arnold" Trump, R. W. *The Annotated Arnold: A commentary on *Patterns of Fashion 1560-1620* by Janet Arnold*. Self-published.
