Thanks. The search results I got didn't fit into the images. I saw the
sleeve drapes and didn't know what they were called.
I've been learning quite a bit from the discussion boards and costume
constructions.

Quoting Becky <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
I looked at the images and don't know what "tippets" are. Please explain.
I googled it and found sites with shawls and scarves. What in the image
is a tippet?
See those "streamers" coming from her upper arm? Those are tippets.
If you do a google *image* search [put tippets in your search box, get
your results, and then click on the image link above the search box]
you'll get a page that shows some other gowns with tippets --
including this paperdoll site
http://www.gallimauphry.com/PD/gawain/gawain.html
and this Ready-To-Wear-Garb site
http://www.revivalclothing.com/catpages/cat_womenssilkwardrobe.htm
her tippets are white, and look like an add-on, but Robin's research
indicates that this probably isn't the case.

It's Italian, but dig those tippets!
