costume nomenclature

[James Martin <James.S.Martin@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This query concerns nomenclature for historic costumes.  I am studying a
polychrome and gilt 16th-17th century bas relief sculpture of English
origin.  Many layers of overpaint obscure detail and make it difficult to
differentiate parts of costumes and floral decoration. 

I am seeking an illustrated guide that names parts or pieces of period
English costumes, in print or on-line.

With many thanks,

Jamie
