Good evening all,
In the SCA, my kingdom 12th Night for this season has a theme of the
Court of Maximilian, Holy Roman Emperor, basically a Night in Vienna
in 1500. 1500 is such an interesting year. :) I've looked at a lot
of images lately. Seriously a transitional time for noble clothing.
You might check out the Hispanic Costume book, as Juana la Loca (oldest
daughter of Isabella) was married to the Magnificent Max. The styles they
wore were very similiar.

Meli,
Here's a Pinterest board of paintings from 1500's Austria that I've been
collecting to help a friend for 12th Night,

As you noted, fashion was in a huge transitional period. Maximillain was
married
to Bianca Maria Sforza at this time, so
I would go from 1490s and move forward. I do have a couple of pages that have
images from this time frame, tho my focus was more English than Vienna.
However, the images do include Flemish, French and Spanish images as well, tho
not the odder Spanish styles.
