Description

Photos taken by Sancha and Yvainne respectively from the SCA.

Woolen middle class gown from Cleves in the 1560s. I spent several years hunting out information on this style of dress and finally made my winter gown last year.
Blue twill lined in shot green/blue dupioni.
My own pattern developed fro studying paintings, woodcuts, texts and extant garments. The latter from the same time but not same area.

Do you have a blog post with a dress diary? I would love to know the process and what you used to research. I love the hat/coif!
