I've seen both "Laudomia" and "Laudonia"; one is in 20,000 Years of
Fashion and the other is in an Italian language book about Bronzino.

Isn't her name Laudomia? Moda a Firenze has the picture as Isabella de
Medici (Cosimo and Eleonora's daughter) Laudomiia was the Cosimo's cousin,
sister of Lorenzino who murdered Alessandro, the Duke.

Here is the Wikipedia link: It has a good-sized picture.

If I remember correctly, there's a large image of it in Moda a Firenze.
I can scan it, but it won't be until tomorrow.

The gown is black and silver, accented with white pearls.

Thanks so much to all who have replied so far, I very much appreciate
everyone's insights. The books suggested look fantastic; I haven't been
able to afford Hunnisett yet and Ribeiro was unknown to me. My local
library doesn't have them but I should be able to get them through ILL -
I'll probably be back with more questions after some reading. :)

Suzi, if your other information is easily accessible I'd love to have
it, but if it's a lot of trouble please don't bother. :)

Thanks,
Ingrid

Re: [h-cost] Late 18th c. masquerade wear

2007-09-10 Thread LLOYD MITCHELL
From my own reading and study, the concept of "Fancy Dress" in this period 
at least for women simply meant an exageration of curent vogue or the 
fanciful appropriation of clothing from another class ( gussied up with 
jewels and of course, feathers).  Q MarieAntoinette's milkmaid/farm wear or 
perhaps opera or ballerina garb that would allow the tasteful show of ankle.
Since Fashion had achieved the highest level, there was no challenge to try 
to better it by going to an historical past for inspiration.  It did however 
call for getting out all one's visable wealth and trotting out for public 
display...with a fan-mask of perhaps allegorical signifince.

"Fancy Dress" often still was consistent with formal wear.

Back at Costume-Con 17, Deb Salisbury did a fabulous "Harem Girl" 
historical fancy dress costume which fused the pants of a harem girl with 
the bustle of the fashion of the day. Her research was rock-solid.





Isn't this Victorian  though? I have lots of Victorian fashion plates of 
fancy dress, but have seen virtually nothing for the late 18th century.
