Wardrobe Plot
An inventory of all the costumes used in a production, actor-by-actor, scene-by-scene, with a detailed breakdown of every item in each costume.

 

 

Wimple
A garment worn by women in Medieval Europe. The cloth usually covered the head and was worn around the chin and neck, as it was inappropriate for a married woman to show her hair. A wimple could be starched, creased and folded in elaborate ways, and could be supported on wire or wicker framing. Today the wimple is sometimes worn by nuns donning the traditional habit.
