Renowned artists Tatsuhiro Ozaki (founder of the Society for the Study of Manga Techniques) and Unkaku Koyama (author of "How to Draw Manga: Super Tone Techniques") team up for "Maids and Miko," a fascinating, in-depth look at the traditional costumes worn by Western housemaids and Japanese temple servants (miko).

Features hundreds of poses and detailed written descriptions of the garments and how they are worn.
