One thing I am sure of is that the armseye of the upper garments will not be as high as the originals nor the bottoms as capacious . These would grace any stage quite nicely.

You didn't? Am I just being overly sensitive? I often feel like historical re-enactors and reproducers of accurate historical costumes look down their noses to a certain extent at theatrical costume designers because the latter don't usually attempt complete authenticity.
