Subject: GFD and cleavage
Hello everyone,
Over the last few weeks I've been trying to fit a Gothic Fitted Dress (she
wants to replicate this style of dress
http://www.tudorplace.com.ar/images/Woodville,Elizabeth.jpg ) <snip>
I just found a better example of this style for those who aren't familiar
with the style of 1480s England
http://www.mbs-brasses.co.uk/pic_lib/Elizabeth_Seyntmour.htm and you can see
an indication of some cleavage there (although unfortunately she is posed in
the typical fashion for medieval funereal brasses which gets in the way of
seeing her neckline properly), and another example from the same site
http://www.mbs-brasses.co.uk/pic_lib/Isabel_Cheyne.htm
