And lastly, does anyone have leads as to what these jackets might have
looked like before the vogue for the polychrome embroidery as seen in
these paintings and artifacts that have all been dated to 1600 or
later? I'm hoping to figure out what a lady in 1570-80 might have
worn.

There's two monochrome embroidered jackets mentioned on this page, if it
helps http://www.extremecostuming.com/reproductions/themaidstonejacket.html
but ultimately I think jackets are a very late 16th century fashion and I'm
not sure if they existed in the 1570s.
