Clothing in the world

   

   Not only in England and France were people dressed.

   Purpose of these short texts is basic information how clothing components were mixed and how communities exchanged their experiences.

   There were no nation or national fashion in mediaeval times, but it can not be said that in Middle ages people in whole Europe were dressed same as in England. In each region were different clima, habits and this affect clothing.

   We offer our simple papers although  they unfortunately don't cover complete topic. We still work on improvement and we'll appreciate your help.

   In face of frequent changes it is impossible for us to translate these texts to English.
