<<My Renaissance dress is similar to this one: "Elisabeth von Valois" Alonso Sanchez Coello, 1565 http://www.mauritia.de/de/renaissance/elisabethvalois.html Does anyone have details of the front and partlet area? Also this one looks like it is divided in the front, but not exactly like the Venetian courisan type dress. I'd rather have a dress that opens in the front. Are there any other examples of front opening dresses from the period of 1565 -1580. I've used various styles to make my own combination of the parts I like. I'll post it as soon as I scan the sketch.>>
I have a photo of a great picture of this, the bodice is *not* divided up the front. It is much like other bodices that probably have a "stomacher" front with a divided skirt. I'll edit the pics and upload them later tonight. michaela de bruce http://glittersweet.com -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
