Actually, there is a healthy contingent of females wearing renaissance
clothing!  I find that now that I'm wearing garb from the 1470's to 1510's,
that there are more of us out there than I originally thought. Of course, that
could be because I'm noticing the style more now ("hm....let's see. How did
she do those sleeves?  What kind of fabric is that?")  There were a number of
very well-attended classes on Ren garb at Pennsic, as well.  I imagine that it
is perhaps less popular among men, although I don't know for sure . . . never
having asked the question.
