Boy, those are really narrow stripes, aren't they? I've never seen such a
nice, large image of this painting before, so I've never noticed them.
I've seen stripes show up occasionally in other Italian dresses in the 16th
century, and even earlier, so they're definitely not unknown, and not all
are
The fishes did evil grin, but not the clothing afaik!

You know, it looks to me like the dress in question has a sheer overlay on
the skirt--look at the bottom there. What's more, it kind of looks like the
ooopsie! Yup, I meant 1930's

And an evil response to what I assume is a typo--did they do fishtails in
the 1000s?

If I had one (a brown tape one is on the project list somewhere) she'd be
wearing either a mid-13th c. gown in gold wool twill that needs the
sleeves tightened up and new trim put on, a 13th c. sleeveless gown in a
lovely dark purple wool twill that needs hems, or a 13th c. sleeveless
gown

Re the 40's patterns-what size are you interested in? I ask because a friend
gave me a bunch of patterns from her mom, who used to be a seamstress. I
think I noticed some 40's stuff in the quick look I've taken.

I wear a bumroll with my Ren Faire costume and it doesn't stick out as far
as in that painting. Also, the style of the clothing (especially the very
long pointed fronts) is from the late 1500's, when wheel farthingales were
worn. Bumrolls, worn alone, were earlier.

The one I made closed up the front.
