To: h-costume@mail.indra.com Message-ID: 189357.56892...@web53102.mail.re2.yahoo.com Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii I just happened to borrow Strong's English Icon, so I thumbed through it looking for black ruffs. There aren't any all-black ruffs, but there are a few edged in black and a few more that are heavily embroidered with blackwork. I could only find three online: http://www.elizabethan-portraits.com/ThomasHoward1.jpg http://www.elizabethan-portraits.com/FrancisSidney.jpg http://www.uvm.edu/~hag/sca/tudor/blackmary.jpg If you'd like more pictures, email me privately and I'll see if I can get them scanned. Margaret Roe Any call on what the thingy on the floor by the feet of Francis Sidney is? It almost looks like a shield, except it is covered in the same fabric as her gown and kirtle, And lined with fur.

[h-cost] Striped Regency day dress fashion plate?
I have just acquired some striped silk which I want to make into a Regency day dress, to wear with a spencer. Although not technically correct, I am prepared to look at fashion plates between 1790 and 1820. However, I am unable to find stripes worn during the day between these dates. I have found German evening dresses, and in my own collection, the 1820's have many lovely striped dresses. I have looked at Jessamine's Regency Page, the fashion plate collection of Blanche Payne at ?Washington?, and of course my own collection of more than a couple if hundred. Any advance or suggestions please? Definitions include day dress, walking dress, promenade dress, but not morning dress.

Re: [h-cost] Striped Regency day dress fashion plate?
There are several plates of striped day dresses. Last year, I did a search to find patterned dresses. There are a couple of French illustrations that show printed fabric, too. I think patterned fabrics were more common than they appear because of the difficulty of engraving stripes or a pattern for a fashion plate. These are at the office, and I will try to remember to look for them on Monday. Some of the images are from a CD collection which, unfortunately, I have misplaced at the moment.

One of the p[lates I own has a printed evening dress, which I think is also in the Blanche Payne collection, but they certainly are unusual. There is a 4000 plus collection at the Museum of London, but although they are archived, they are not, as yet, online. Hopefully one day they will be. They are accessible to researchers, but not at the moment as there is a huge building programme going on.
