Cleves gown close up

The headdress is based on several variations of the regional style called a Stickelchen. This is most well known as 'that hat Anne of Cleves wore'.
The belt and necklace are put togther from brass findings and beads the pendant is a "Lily" which is the Lochac A&S kingdom level award. A year after this I got my laurel But I still wear the lily with it as it works well with the period.
The short jacket type garment is a very nifty regional item. It was worn all over the Netherlands and Germany in various styles. The further into Germany you went the more like a short cloak it was. I'm also wearing a partlet under the gown and a silk chemise as this is a winter garment.
