ABSTRACT
The staging of the Olympic Games in the UK this year gives us the opportunity to think about the clothes and appearance of those who take part in sporting activities. You may not be a great fan of sport yourself but you will see from the Costume archive just how much interest there has been over the years in dress for sports of all kinds and across many periods. Pat Poppy has compiled a checklist from the Journal's back numbers of articles about sports clothing and we present this to our readers on page 235 of this themed issue.
