Resumen:
The clothing is a reflection of the ideology of the historical moment in which it occurs. What we see of it is an open door to the idiosyncrasies of the period, which can be analyzed from a social, political and even psychological and moral point of view. The Catalan fashion of the fifteenth century had its own forms that differentiated it from the style of the other peninsular kingdoms. For those kingdoms Catalan fashion was a source of inspiration and innovation on many occasions. This doctoral thesis reviews in detail the different clothes of the ladies of the nobility in Catalonia. The materials and dyes with which they were made will be analyzed, as well as their stylistic evolution, through unpublished illustrations created in detail throughout the investigation by the author. Also, there will be a historical, psychological, moral and sociological analysis of the clothing, as shown by the reality of the woman of the moment and how it was reflected in her attire. Finally, six sculptural and pictorial works will be studied, analyzing the symbolism and the socioeconomic message besides the choice of garments, colors and styles in with which the ladies were portrayed.All accompanied by illustrations created to explain its morphology. Illustration and Art History are united in a research that aims to become an easy-to-use manual for any historian who intends to make a historical and artistic approach to any garment that is found in the Catalan artistic world of the fifteenth century.
