This is because i have had an order from Gammel Estrup, whom i made the danish courtdress. They want me to make 2 renaissance costumes (late period 1614). I am going to make these after 2 portraits, of a coupple who owned the place back then. On monday ill make a good scan of the portraits for you to see, i am sure that i am going to need a lot of help from you experts, its manny years ago i made renaissance, and my knolledge about theperiod is very limited. The female costume is as far as i can see, without any farthingale, and quite simple, with long narrow sleaves in black, bodice black, and overskirt black. The only collour is the underskirt wich is red and black with gold lace on it. The collar is a standing one, with a lace in the edge. The mans portrait is rather dark and its difficult to see clearly but i suppose its trunkhoses doublet and a cloak with a small ruff round the neck, both persons have white cuffs edged with lace. The female has a coiff embroidered with pearls and edged with lace. So you are going to have me here for a while, i am looking forwards to all the help i can get from you........... Manny greetings Bjarne in Denmark. _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list [email protected] http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
