It is appropriate to honor Robin Netherton this year as she steps down from her role as coeditor of the annual journal Medieval Clothing and Textiles (2006–), which she co-founded. It is unusual to offer a Festschrift of this kind to a person who has never occupied an academic post. Robin has never sought such a post. Our Introduction gives a brief account of her career as a journalist and editor, her family life, and the multiplicity of talents which has led to her being accepted as a leading scholar in the field of medieval and early modern dress and textiles. The individual tributes that precede each contribution clarify the importance of Robin's industry, thoroughness, and personal kindness. All of our contributors have, in the past, enjoyed the benefits of Robin's editing of their contributions to Medieval Clothing and Textiles. Most are also personal friends. The enthusiasm of the contributors to give something back to Robin has been remarkable throughout the process of commissioning, writing, and editing this book, which we offer to her with the admiration and love of us all.
