Dear H-Costume,
I'm very pleased to announce the publication of 'Women, work and clothing
in 18th-century Spain', by Rebecca Haidt. (short synopsis below, or fuller

Hope she looked at exant garments, too. Seem to be several authors lately who
try to tell the story of what was worn by just using literary sources.

using it for Victorian petticoats and garments mostly. Unless anyone
knows where one can st
Bookbinders use starch, so stores that cater to them usually carry wheat and
rice starch. I can't think of any specific stores but a search should locate
them for you. Sometimes Asian markets will also have rice starch as well.
