That is one fabulous suit!!! It must have taken a major investment of time
as well as money. Was it for another wedding or just a replica of the
original one? Either way, it ouwld take a very confident man to wear that
with his lacey cuffs and beauty mark on his cheek. That suit is the sppitamy
of the well dressed man... monarch that is.

Subject: [h-cost] replica of Christian VII's wedding suit
You must se this. Mauritia Kirchner whom i know and admirer, have met her
many times at the gustavians, has made an outstanding brilliant work.
She made a replica of the danish king Christian VII his weddingsuit when
he married Carolina Mathilda from England in 1766. I have seen the
original once and have pictures of it in some of my costume books.
This is to die for:
Even the fabric is specially wowen for this projekt with 3 kg. of
silver...........
