« In addition to those just described, there are four pairs of leggings in the Speck collection, two of which are identified as having been worn by women. One of these is made of a single piece of purple wool felt edged with green cotton tape. Just inside the edge are rows of orange, purple, and green silk-wrapped cording. The seam is sewn so as to leave a narrow flap at the outside of the leg on either side. These leggings narrow near the ankle where there is a red silk tie. At the proximal end is a strip of red and white cotton tape, presumably to tie the leggings to garters since they are too short for the tie to reach to a belt (fig. 19a). » Vanstone, James W.
