Mores Italiae and the books by Cesare Vecellio and Giacomo Franco are some of the most wonderful first hand sources for 16th century Italian Renaissance fashions that we have in existence today. Vecellio, especially, describes them in great detail. They are well worth exploring when you begin your
Venetian Renaissance costume research. And along the way, you will find some prime choices for the bizarre and strange.

In fact, in my opinion, Venetian Renaissance fashion has some of the most bold and interesting fashion choices of the 16th century. And while I absolutely love how they went for it, I also can't stop laughing. Maybe someday we will be in books for similar reasons. We fully endorse courtesans on this channel.
