The images are gorgeous, but I do recommend you credit the source with the book titles and the names of the museums who own the costume/images. That keeps it more within copyright law and gives people the direct info for further research.

I try to when I know, but unfortunately most of the time I do not remember since they are all saved on my computer by the photograph instead of the website where I found them :\

I recommend making an effort to match them up before publishing lots more. It is a small scale website, but with no credits it is illegal to use the images and the publishers and museums could demand they be removed. Plus, it is just standard academic/internet etiquette.
