Originally published in 1927, this book analyses a Cretan statuette owned by the Fitzwilliam Museum. Wace then uses this artefact and other representations of Minoan women to reconstruct high-status female dress in the Minoan and Mycenaean civilizations and discuss the practicalities of its construction and possible decoration. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in ancient Aegean civilizations or the history of fashion.
