It is very interesting for me that red was popular color for Victorian and post-Victorian woman’s underclothes.
************** I think (I'm guessing here) it has to do with wool. Red has always been a good color for wool because the red dye they used takes so well and, if I remember correctly, it only took a few steps to get a rich fast color. Dark blue did this with wool also, but I am unaware of any blue underthings. _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
