Hi,
In Modelejon, about male fashion in Sweden there is a picture of the
shirt.It was worn by Nils Sture 24. of may 1567.
Further reading in swedish is Nylén A-M,. Stureskjortorna i
Livrustka,,aren, vol. IV, hæft 8-9, Stockholm 1948.
The shirt has a wide neckband collar. The body is gathered to the shirt
all way round and has another ruffle gathered at the top of the shirt.
Neckband and Ruffles wich also sits on the sleaves are embroidered with
black silk,
The linnen is 80 cm, wide and all the width has ben used for the front and
back piece.
No smocking, sorry!!!

Bjarne,
Thank you very much for that info. It really helps my current understanding
of the photos I saw, and that it was not smocked.
