A one-page encyclopedia entry on "Costume" from the Nouveau Larousse Illustré, written in French. It defines the term, then surveys dress from the ancient Orient, Greece, the Etruscans, Rome and Gaul through the Middle Ages and modern France. It also covers ecclesiastical and liturgical vestments, military uniforms, official dress, theatrical costume and the fine-arts sense of the word, and ends with a bibliography of French costume histories.
