Gloves
Gloves have had a special place in history and have been used in symbolic gestures of challenging ones honor and the act of dueling, to conferring dignities and bestowing blessings, to concealing ones identity by masking ones fingerprints in unlawful pursuits!
Church and Royal dignitaries wore gloves in ancient times as symbols of power. In the middle ages leather gauntlets were worn for Riding and Falconry and the more elaborate and decorated gloves were used for ceremonial occasions and state affairs.
Queen Elizabeth I, loved gloves so much she had more than 2,000 pairs which were looked after by a special wardrobe mistress!
The glove comes in many forms: as protective wear, for sporting purposes and of course, for dressing. The dress and driving glove has long been a staple of the well-heeled British lady and gentleman and as such we are showcasing some that we think you should add to your wardrobe.
