        in about 1340, though they had been seen on the Mediterranean coast for some considerable time.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.zeitlerweb.com/midages.htm">14th-century costume did not yet include immense hoods, with their points hanging down the back, that later became so fashionable, nor exaggerated sleeve-ends that hung down to the ground. The man on left, for example, is wearing a conical hat over a short hood, though it is extravagantly decorated with a costly ostrich feather.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.zeitlerweb.com/midages.htm"><div align="center"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/www.zeitlerweb.com/img/695EFD9E-0454-44D4-AFDC-7AEB06316FB4" alt="1485 Women" /></div></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.zeitlerweb.com/midages.htm">A detailed list of Margherita's clothes from 1397 reveals what the average outfit would contain.
