Thanks for keeping me honest!  Sure, I'll play the game.
Lessee, Euprosnia once again has on the c1580s English Ren with the
giagantic sleeves that I just restarted, which is what reminded me to
start the "what's your dummy wearing" thread.   I dont know why this
one keeps being under-inspiring.

The dining table has a whitework set of ruffs & cuffs that are almost
done. They are small & relatively sensible. In a corner is scraps from
the 1530s red melton cloth cap that I just cut out. It goes with the
gent's 1530s suit. At the other end of the table is the freshly cut
out wine colored bodice c1580s with the just-washed linen to line it.

The halltree is festooned in just purchased fabrics for a gentleman's
1530s suit in the style of Henry VIII.  There's scraps silks & cabbage
for the 2nd mockup and a full set of silks & linens for the final one.
 That's probably a 2 year project all together.  I'm just the
shopmistress on that project.   Also on the halltree, there's a
recently repaired Ginger Rogers dress that needs to go back to it's
owner.

The closet door frame in the costume room sports a 1470s houppeland,
that needs a small bit of mending. There's a 1920s look black spangled
& lace net over beige chiffon dress that I was just given, that also
needs a small bit of mending.

The lamp is wearing a black fox stole vintage 1940s.
