The Textiles of the Oseberg Ship. By Anne Stine Ingstad Amongst many other discoveries the Oseberg grave chamber also contained the largest and most varied collection of textiles and textile tools that has ever been found in a single grave.
It is without equal in Nordic Prehistory. The collection consists of a number of fragmented tapestries and other patternwoven blankets of wool and linen, tablet woven braids and a large collection of cloth fragments, which come from clothing, sails or tents, rugs and so on, and in addition remains of silk fabrics and silk embroideries. [Picture shows embroidery on woolen cloth. Much enlarged] Of textile tools were found several smaller looms, of which one appears to have been a tubular loom and two others were braid looms.

Of spinning tools were found whorls with and without attached spindles and several loose spindles. The most interesting textiles in the collection are doubtless the tapestries.

By Dalya Alberge Published: 23:31 GMT, 16 July 2012 | Updated: 22:17 GMT, 19 July 2012 It is hardly racy by today’s standards but this skimpy lingerie has certainly shocked historians.
The lace and linen undergarments date back to hundreds of years before women’s underwear was thought to exist. They had lain hidden in a vault beneath the floorboards of an Austrian castle since the 15th century. Foundations of history: This bra was discovered hidden in a vault at Lengberg Castle in East Tyrol and is thought to date back to the 15th century Despite their state of decay, the knickers bear more than a passing resemblance to the string bikini briefs popular today, while the bra has the fitted cups and delicate straps of its modern-day counterparts.
While it was known that medieval men wore undergarments like modern-day shorts, it was thought that women simply wore a smock or chemise. It was thought that knickers didn’t make an appearance until the late 18th century. On-Line Digital Archive of Documents on Weaving and Related Topics.

Queen Elizabeth's Wardrobe Uploaded Few monarchs of the past hold the iconographic power of Queen Elizabeth I.
Gloriana. The Virgin Queen. With her halo of red hair, ropes of jewelry and parade of fabulous gowns, she is defined by her clothing and accessories to a greater extent than almost any other English ruler. A fascination with her costume, and the dress of her era, has remained through the 18th century, Victorian times, and to this very day. This project was based, in part, upon the extensive analysis of Queen Elizabeth's wardrobe accounts, specifically upon the manuscript MS Egerton 2806 held by the British Library. Queen Elizabeth's Wardrobe Uploaded holds documentary evidence for what the Queen, her ladies and waiting, servants and others of her court wore that I have transcribed over the last decade from original manuscripts from the Public Records Office and the British Library.
