You can make button with loops instead of buttonholes, or simple hook and eyes.

Subject: [h-cost] men's elizabethan doublet question


I have a man's doublet that is too tight for buttons and am looking for a period correct way of fastening down the front where the two sides just meet. I have not seen any lace up in any paintings. Can anyone help my poor tired brain with options?
Mnay thanks, Aylwen
