Several of the men still wear exactly the same outfit as the Gemini from the Zodiac section, but the female fashion has moved on considerably (note, for example, how they wear their hair in the "pair of temples" style common for the 1430's).

The wound turban, and the ridiculously low belt, with pleated hose and tight shoes, tight cuffs, loose elbows and distinctive neckline are all there.
