Dressing for Shakespeare

We don't get much opportunity to post graphic-intensive stories, so I thought that this link to Dressing Shakespeare would be fun.  Both male and female garments are broken down and described by their pieces.  I learned something -- I always pictured the high female collar as something worn strictly by royals (probably since I've only ever seen pictures of Elizabeth in it).  Now I know different.
