Book Reviews of Vecellio's Renaissance Costume Book (Dover Pictorial Archive Series)
Book Review: A good source for period-accurate16th Italian/Venetian fashion
Summary: 4 Stars
Despite what some may tell you, this is actually a VERY good source for late 16th century Venetian, and to a lesser extent Italian, costume, especially if studied in conjuction with a study of the portraits of the period. Vecellio was a Venetian born and bred, and also had first hand knowledge of Italian fashions outside of Venice. However, any costume depiction in this book that is of costume outside of Venice or Italy should be taken with a grain of salt.
