Do you know any good resources/references for historically accurate clothing? Like... I have a couple characters from ancient Egypt and I want to draw them in proper clothing, but if I look up "Ancient Egypt clothes/fashion" all I get are those cheesy looking Halloween costumes 🙄

I think the best thing you can do when looking for specifics is stay out of google images! instead do research! By simply doing a simple google search of “what did people wear in Ancient Egypt” i found some pretty good historical resources

https://www.historyonthenet.com/egyptian-clothing

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clothing_in_ancient_Egypt (as long as your not writing an academic research paper or something wikipedia is your best friend) 

https://www.historymuseum.ca/cmc/exhibitions/civil/egypt/egcl06e.html

for other clothing and fashion resources I strongly recommend ‘The Ultimate Fashion History’ youtube Chanel

and the ‘Getting Dresses’ Series from crowseyeproductions on youtube
