Astute observation Helen. The theatrical poster can be seen at the home page of the official site for the film http://www.elizabeththegoldenage.net/ and yes, the lace standing out over the character's right shoulder looks loopy with picots. I think it is a small matter. The film isn't a re-enactment, except as a theatrical interpretation as you say. The character is wearing chainmail and armor, too.
