Aside from this group, i enjoy the 16th cenutyr and its clothing,
puffed and slashed especially. I am mainly looking for links to
construction ideas for puffed and slashed clothing. Mainly a
doublet/jacket of some kind to start with. Any and all help you can
provide would be fantastic.
Hello Thomas,
What nationality for cut/slash work are you looking for? What time frame of
16th century? I am very familiar with some of it, as in English and a bit
of German military. If you are interested in German, there is a yahoogroups
list you might want to check out.

I've done a couple of German styles, and have dressdiary style entries on
my web site
German Dopplesoldier's Slash & Puff Doublet

And I did an English doublet for my husband where I made part of it
slashed. It was in black velveteen with red silk showing under the slashes.
My entry for his doublet is here, and I do show some of the inner
construction (although not all of the details).
