Das Kostum in Vergangenheit und Gegenwart
Das Kostum in Vergangenheit und Gegenwart, a 1906 costume history by Georg Buk published in Bielefeld and Leipzig by Velhagen & Klasing, surveying dress across past periods for a German readership. The plates reproduce period paintings of courtly and bourgeois figures in elaborate gowns, coats, and headwear, with one fresco of a crowd in layered robes; a designer can draw on their silhouettes, drapery folds, and layered garment shapes for historical costume work.
