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.

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