Fashion & Costume

Fashion and costume appear on playing cards as museum series, regional and national dress sets, fashion house promotions and artist-led designs. Subjects range from court portraiture and folk attire to uniforms, masks and runway-inspired sketches, alongside photographic campaigns and catalogue issues. Layouts include full-length or double-ended courts, scenic aces and captioned photo packs, sometimes with gilt edges or custom indices.
