Two view of the
gown because one highlights the partlet. I will need to find a girdle or make one. I have decided to attach the
skirt to the
bodice (wish me luck). I will need to spend from $30-50 for
Swarovski glass pearls. In addition, I haven't decided if I want to line the partlet with blue or
red. I have red, but I could maybe find the blue. Maybe stay with white.
Flat cap-- I know that is somewhat unusual for
Tudor style to have a flat cap, but I have come to like the sun blocking effect. The
French hood or gabled hood would leave my eyes too exposed and then I frown all day, LOL!
I wanted a very late Tudor gown, but I needed it to be versatile enough for Elizabethan. So the sleeves are where I made the most basic
design I could. I didn't buy enough velvet (way back when) to make the fantastic sleeves for Tudor-- originally the fabric was purchased for an Elizabethan bodice and skirt combo
