I think what really bothers me is when some costumes are authentic or at least close and others are so far off as to be "fantasy". The mens' costumes in The Tudors look close, but the women's, with the loose hair, bare arms/shoulders, are further out. To me, they don't match stylistically and that jars.

I think most of us can appreciate "it's theatre," so long as everyone involved admits that is what it is.
