Oh, I see lots of nice, and some rather incorrect outfits in this movie
clip. They've set the date of the movie in 1547, when Henry is old and about
to die. His wife is obviously supposed to be Anne Boleyn (from the B on her
necklace), who was killed by Henry's command in the 1536. The garments on
the dancers range from Henrician to Elizabethan in styles. At least most of
the women appear to have their heads mostly covered, and surprisingly in
appropriate hoods of both English and French styles.
The yellow loose gown is more Elizabethan with the puffed sleeves, about
1560s to early 70s in style. Loose gowns were worn all through that time
period, what changed were the style of the sleeves, for the most part.
Btw, are you on Facebook? If so, I can get you into an Elizabethan costuming
group, where one of the members has recently posted a number of Dutch images
that might be of help to you.

I am still learning and studying loose gowns for the museum projekt. I
love the loose gown in this film clip from The prince and the pauper:

The coupple dansing right behind the prince of wales, the yellow gown with
the short paned sleave.
But i am afraid the period is two early for the projekt.
By the way i think the costumes are very well made in this film, those
were the hayday of costume moovies, “six wifes of henry VIII, and manny
more.
