Subject: [h-cost] Shoulder-strap-less Tudors?
I'm almost positive someone posted a link about this on here, sometime in
the past year or so.... Someone made or was in the process of planning an
early/mid 16thC gown (probably c1540s) with a neckline so wide that they
just eliminated the shoulder strap part of the bodice entirely. Can
anyone remember the topic/link?

This webiste
http://photos.ladybrooke.com/sca/gowns/velvetgown/gettingstarted.htm is a
strapless Tudor gown, it is not an uncommon theory on Tudor construction her
finished product does look good except for the bumroll under the skirt which
just doesn't fit with the smooth Tudor look.
