Hi Guys
I do costume work and have a few questions if you might indulge me. I need to make or find correct neckerchiefs for the hj and bdm uniforms. The type material and size and shape are something from photos I can;t determine. is the neckerchief a square folded to a triangle or is it material cut to a triangle and what fabric is correct and what size is correct and are both bdm and hj the same? Next I saw mention of knots that go about 25 for the real deal. Knots I have found that are similar and new construction not quite the style of hj seem to bring as much money as a real knot. is there a source for reproduction or real knots in the 25 dollar or less range and are repro neckerchiefs available or should I just make them. The knots I have found are sold by outer diameter and inner hole size so again without having the neckerchief size it's hard to say what works and is correct. Any help for sources or general data would be greatly appreciated.
thanks and happy holidays Eva
