Help with 13th c. Beguines
Hello everybody!
I would like to start a kit focussing on 13th century beguines from the cologne region. I couldn't find anything on their clothes. Particularily the colours, cut and veils.
The vowed to live simple lives so I imagine the fabrics were undyed or dyed in cheap colours, cut like a "regular" 13th c. dress. Did they use contemporary nuns as "inspiration" when it comes to their veils?
Does someone know anykind of information on this or where to maybe even find pictures?
