Re: [h-cost] More Tudor Questions (next step - bodice)
1. No farthingale - just a stiffened petticoat, a pleated undergown and a pleated overgown should give oomph enough I didn't catch what dates you are looking at. The later styles are very conical and often have skirts fitted smoothly over the front of the hooped skirt. I had a look in my deleted emails, but I seem to have completely lost the first post... sigh. If you are looking at later then hooped skirts are the only thing that will give that shape (escept maybe layers and layers of netting layers and layers and layers..). For earlier (Jane Seymore, Margaret Tudor etc etc) then a supportive underskirt is probably better. 2. No corset - bodice lined with canvas and I'm not going to bone it since I don't need THAT much support and the stiffened stomacher should provide the appropriate front line. I would make sure you can add boning at a later date, simply because I know from personal experience of not needing much support that I won't conform to shape unless I do somehting more drastic;) I had a really good example at the end of September when I wore my Victorian corset laced as close as it can. My shape was suddenly ideal for the period (it lowered my waistline considerably). Same with my effigy stays for my 1560 Spanish gown. Is there anything in Corsets and Crinolines from this period? I was focused post 1550 when I last looked at the book. And the Richard III society has privy purse accounts from before 1510 (canvas is mentioned for upperbodices.) 3. Using a 2 kirtle setup - as in the Cecilia Heron picture, pinned stomacher on outermost gown as in the Jane Seymour I have some nice close ups of two of the Jane Seymour portraits, and one of a miniature to show the pins quite clearly. http://glittersweet.com/1seymorebodice1.jpg http://glittersweet.com/1seymorebodice2.jpg http://glittersweet.com/2seymore1.jpg http://glittersweet.com/2seymore2.jpg http://glittersweet.com/holbainsmall.jpg Lovely typo in his name.. sigh. I have two big quandaries right now. The first is how should the undergown fasten? Looking at the sketches of Cecilia Heron and the More family, the undergown is definitely NOT front-fastening. Is side-lacing period-appropriate or would it be back-laced? I'm trying to find images from earlier/later periods, even in other countries, particularly of lower-class dress but I'm having little success. I'm pretty sure one of the vasquina y cuerpo baxo (skirt with bodice) patterns in Alcega has the front and backs cut on the fold so that the only way to fasten it is at the side seams, which are only slightly shifted to the back. My book is buried in my sewing room with no chance of rescue tonight. My second question is what pattern should I use for the skirt portion? I see skirts of just a few panels all the way to multiple gored pieces (like Alcega's farthingale or kirtle for a fat woman f.58a patterns). Looking at the skirts in Alcega and Patterns of Fashion I'd use a gored pattern with a wider back skirt section to allow for pleats at the back. The rounder the waist is cut and the wider the side seam angles the more flare you'll get. You are probably going to do well adapting Eleanora di Toledo's skirt. It's got a nice drape without too much skirt flare. The train can be cut shorter if needed. michela de bruce http://costumes.glittersweet.com -- No virus found in this outgoing message.

And a small section of garter stitch at the top of the stocking does do this very well. This is only a theory and is based entirely on the fact that it works and not on historical evidence. - Ynes ___ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume

Re: [h-cost] theater opera costumes in general
Bjarne, I'm with you on this basically. It seems to me that the music, or the words (in the case of a play), should be seen as part of a whole world being created, and that world also includes what the eye sees--costumes, set, even the actor's gestures. Once in a while a production comes along where the beauty of the language or the music or something in the theme is highlighted by, or given a new focus by, costumes or setting from another time, or from no time at all (that is, maybe black slacks and sweaters on all the actors, set made of movable cubes, etc.)--but most of the time when the production designer or director changes the time period of the set and costumes, the music or language sounds odd or the audience is confused or distracted by the changes. I blame a few things. --First of all, it's hard to raise money to do a production if all you're planning to do is the show as written. Every time I get ready to direct a Shakespeare play, people ask me What's your concept? and they mean, how are you going to change things to make this different and new? Investors probably are more eager for that than the general public. --Second, some directors don't consider it very creative to just do the show as it was originally conceived by the playwright or composer. They want to make their mark on it. --Third, unfortunately, there's a lot of condescension on the part of the art community toward the general public. A British actor was in residence at Williams College here a few years ago and directed a production of Richard Brinsley Sheridan's The Rivals (1775). I went because I had just done a production of that myself and was curious as to how ours would measure up. Well, I HATED his production--it was camped up, a broad sex scene was put in, a lot of slapstick and sight gags were added. The audience did laugh a lot, but I and the actors who had come along with me were very disappointed. The show itself is very very funny--it doesn't need all that low comedy thrown in. When I got home I looked at the program and noticed that he had given a talk there at the theater one day, called Adapting The Rivals for the Modern Audience. So you see he obviously believed that a modern audience wouldn't get The Rivals as originally conceived. But I can tell you that the audiences! that came to see MY The Rivals laughed and laughed and said the play was wonderful. They didn't need to be condescended to. Well, I do think that experimenting is a healthy thing in art. But I also think people have to keep in mind what they're doing it for, and also remember that the piece they're working with has been around for a long time without their interference. What a shame that such a rare opportunity to see a Monteverdi opera wasn't used to show the audience what the original experience was really like. This isn't to say that older works of art should be treated like museum pieces, but just that they should be respected in themselves, and audiences should be respected enough to be trusted with them.

Eastern Standard Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: What are your opinions about this, why in heavens name don't they make period costumes Well, it depends on the production. The concept, if not period, need not have period costumes. And I assure you the original 17th century production of this Greek myth didn't have period Greek costumes. Or did you mean Baroque costumestheir modern version of what they thought the costumes should look like in the 17th century? You see the problem here. I love Monteverdi! My favorite production of L'Orfeo [which is actually older than Il ritorno d'Ulisse in patria] that is on film is Jean-Pierre Ponnelle's late 1970's production. It is Baroque with the gods and goddesses dressed in court costume with farthingales and stiff wired collarsbut with bits of allegorical stufflike the words La Musica in the spirit of music's hair. Charon looks like a Baroque grotesque off some architectural element. The shepherds look like a dream from a Milton poem. Ponnelle did all 3 of the big Monteverdi operas [the 3rd one being L'incoronazione di Poppea] in this Baroque style. Alas, none of them are on DVD to my knowledge. On DVD is another version of LOrfeo dressed in ancient Greek clothingsorta. It still has ample Baroque elements...especially in the scenery. Great singing too! It's on BBC Opus/Arte with Le Concert des Nations and La Capella Reial de Catalunya doing the music. There's also a great Ulisse with Samuel Ramey singing the title role on DVDbut I don't have that one. Anyway... if the production calls for period costumes, then they should have them. If the concept is not to make it look periodthe costumes will not be period. The costumes must serve the vision of the director's concept. [My biggest problem with much costuming is, it's just bad... modern or period. Costuming gets no respect in America. They'll hire the Producer's niece to do the clothes because she needs a summer job!] There is a great GREAT version of an opera, Les Indes Gallantes [1735] by French baroque composer Rameau on DVD that is fantastic! I love it. It has great respect for Baroque traditions but is completely modern. And a lark. It is light entertainment and the costumes are a hootthough not truly periodstill their roots are evident. They are costumes all the way, but work so well with the concept of the show. There are lots of Baroque stage effects in it: A storm at sea, a volcano eruptingit's great fun! The last act takes place among American Indians! Of course the music is divine!

I want to take an authentic bent so I've been scouring portraits but I just can't tell and I need to figure this out NOW so I can purchase fabric, hopefully this weekend. I do remember one earlier portrait (from Spain?) showing a tapestry fabric kirtle pieced as in an Alcega gored pattern. And what proportions should I do it in? Do I just figure out an appropriate circumferance for the hem and take up the rest in pleating? I'm a little leery of doing that since I have 50 of waist to deal with and I need plenty of fabric to pleat at the back as in the style of the Holbein back view sketch. Some quick thoughts. http://costume.dm.net/fabuse.html is a website that details amounts of fabrics used for 16th c. women's clothes. I just happened to be reading it as your question came over the list. It might help you. On the kirtle (undergown) and how it fastens, that's something I am trying to determine as well. The Cunningtons in _Handbook of English Costume in the 16th Century_ mentions Fastened down the front to waist invisibly, probably by hooks and eyes. Occasionally buttoned or laced. They also mention stomachers (1516/1517) and placards (1547) that are suitably vague enough to maybe covering the actual fasteners under the gown. Most images I have seen are not detailed enough to know for sure what was done under the gown. As to the amount of fabric for the skirt to pleat in the back, if you have even two panels of 45 material, you will have more than plenty to pleat at the back in that style. I really wouldn't go with more fabric, and may even consider doing less. It might be something you might want to drape onto a form and see what gives you the right look. Kimiko I wish that the website could help, but not a lot of women back then were ever my size, at least not any pictured (which is why I like Lady Guildford's portrait - she's plump and she's only a little younger than I am - 27). That's why I was really interested to see the Alcega layout for a fat woman.
