From volume 6 onwards, the work was continued by Père Bullot. An extraordinary source of information on all the monastic, religious and military orders, many of which have disappeared, and all of which had their own distinctive costumes, a particular history, different practices, and often astonishingly remarkable characters. Discover a world that has partly disappeared, and is little known today. With a thought for the fashion show in Fellini's film Roma.
