Stomacher Farthingale Gown Doublet Jerkin Cloak Ruff

Elizabeth I loved jewelled clothes and is said to have left over 2,000 decorated dresses hanging in her wardrobe when she died. Most ordinary people wore clothes similar to those of the rich and fashionable people but they were simpler and made from cheap materials like wool or linen. Children were usually dressed in smaller versions of their parents' clothes. Rich Elizabethan women wore a lot of clothes each day. They wore a thick petticoat. Over this went a bodice and a skirt. The skirt was held up by hoops and padded at the hips. An outer bodice and skirt went over this and on top of that there was a gown, which went down to the floor. Rich men wore a linen shirt and a tight-fitting jacket called a doublet. Over there was another jacket which came out over the hips. They wore stockings and padded breeches instead of trousers. Most wore a velvet or fur hat. These are words that would have been used for different parts of the clothing. Find out what each refers to and write a description.

The Shape of Women: Corsets, Crinolines & Bustles
The Shape of Women: Corsets, Crinolines & Bustles – c. 1790-1900 1790-1809 – Neoclassicism In the late 18th century, the latest fashions were influenced by the Rococo and Neo-classical tastes of the French royal courts. Elaborate striped silk gowns gave way to plain white ones made from printed cotton, calico or muslin. The dresses were typically high-waisted (empire line) narrow tubular shifts, unboned and unfitted, but their minimalist style and tight silhouette would have made them extremely unforgiving! Underneath these dresses, the wearer would have worn a cotton shift, under-slip and half-stays (similar to a corset) stiffened with strips of whalebone to support the bust, but it would have been impossible for them to have worn the multiple layers of foundation garments that they had done previously. (Left) Fashion plate showing the neoclassical style of dresses popular in the late 18th century (Right) a similar style ball- gown in the museum’s collections, reputedly worn at the Duchess of Richmond’s ball (1815) There was public outcry about these “naked fashions,” but by modern standards, the quantity of underclothes worn was far from alarming. What was so shocking to the Regency sense of prudery was the novelty of a dress made of such transparent material as to allow a “liberal revelation of the human shape” compared to what had gone before, when the aim had been to conceal the figure. Women adopted split-leg drawers, which had previously been the preserve of men, and subsequently pantalettes (pantaloons), where the lower section of the leg was intended to be seen, which was deemed even more shocking! On a practical note, wearing a short sleeved thin muslin shift dress in the cold British climate would have been far from ideal, which gave way to a growing trend for wearing stoles, capes and pelisses to provide additional warmth.

Dress Like a Pilgrim a Procurement Guide by Mayflower Guard
DRESS LIKE A PILGRIM A Procurement Guide SEPTEMBER 29, 2018 THE MAYFLOWER GUARD General Society of Mayflower Descendants Dress Like a Pilgrim A Procurement Guide By Mayflower Guard As James Baker, noted Pilgrim historian, points out in his recent article in the Mayflower Journal 1 there is a major image problem associated with what clothing and apparel Pilgrims wore. The image of black clothing, buckles and blunderbusses persist in the public mind. To overcome this misperception and to assist in this effort to change public perceptions, the donning of appropriate garments representing what the Pilgrims actually wore should be a major objective for the commemoration of the 1 Baker, James W., Pilgrim Images III, Mayflower Journal Vol. 2, No. 1 [2017], pp 7-19 1 400th anniversary of the arrival of the Mayflower. We the Mayflower descendants need to Dress Like a Pilgrim and wear Pilgrim Appropriate Apparel (PAA). So, what did Pilgrim men and women wear? Fabrics In 17th Century England and in the Netherlands, there were two basic fabrics that were used for clothing, wool and linen. There was combination of wool and linen know has fustian corduroy that was also used, however finding this fabric today is almost impossible. Cotton while available was very rare and very expensive in the early 17th century. Colors We know that the Pilgrims wore a variety of colors in their clothing from probate records where the color of various clothing items were mentioned including the colors violet, blue, green.1,2 The color red was also listed. However, the reds that were used in the early 17th century were more of a brick red and a matter red which is a little more orange in nature than modern reds.

European-Womens-Short-Cloaks-Of
Introduction to European Women’s Short Cloaks of the 16th and Early 17th Centuries Annaka Poznanska Dragon’s Laire Scholar 2021 mka: Anita Taylor [email protected] 206.369.2231 EUROPEAN WOMEN’S 16TH AND 17TH CENTURY SHORT CLOAKS 2 Abstract The purpose of this paper is to introduce the short cloak as worn by 16th and early 17th century women. The paper begins with a brief history of the short cloak prior to the 16th century. It continues with an overview of short cloaks by selected geographic region, comparing visual characteristics from period art and period tailor’s patterns, for both women and men. This paper does not contain information about ecclesiastical cloaks or other cloak-like vestments worn by priests, nuns, and other members of religious orders during this time period. EUROPEAN WOMEN’S 16TH AND 17TH CENTURY SHORT CLOAKS 3 Introduction My goal for this research was to learn about women’s short cloaks in this time period, and to start adding them to my SCA wardrobe. I was inspired by a class that I took: Master Charles de Bourbon’s Fur Master Class, as well as my desire to reproduce this stunning Hungarian 16th century silk fur-lined short cloak and matching gown. Figure 1: Hungarian 16th century fur-lined cloak with matching gown. EUROPEAN WOMEN’S 16TH AND 17TH CENTURY SHORT CLOAKS 4 A Brief History of the Short Cloak from Prehistoric Times through the 15th Century People in the European medieval world believed that the beginning of human existence, and the beginning of clothing, takes place in the Biblical account of God creating the first outer clothes for Adam and Eve from animal skins.

Passion for Fashion (103) Lot
Passion for Fashion (103) Mon, 20th Nov 2017 GMT/BST Lot 101 Estimate: £40000 - £60000 + Fees A rare crimson velvet jerkin, circa 1610-25, short-waisted with slight graduation to front, the shoulder wings and hem with tabbed edges adorned with wine silk and gold thread plaited braid, the graduated stand collar interlined with heavy buckram, the main jerkin interlined with natural un-bleached linen, curved back seams and two lines of braid to the back, silver-gilt wrapped acorn shaped buttons, the hem tabs and collar lined in crimson silk, chest 102cm, 42in; together with purpose-made mount (2) An additional 5% VAT is payable on the hammer price, this can be refunded if proof of export outside the EU is provided within 6 months of the sale date. Provenance: The Helen Larson Private Collection Published: The Journal of the Costume Society, no 5, 1971, 'A Study of Three Jerkins' by Janet Arnold - the renowned scholar of early dress. Few specimens of late 16th or early 17th century costume survive. The jerkin as a garment was worn to protect the rich doublet worn below, and to provide extra warmth or protection. Utilitarian or military examples were made in leather - but this example in the finest Italian velvet must have belonged to a man of great wealth and importance. The shortness of the waist and slightly curved silhouette served to emphasise the well-rounded belly of its owner - a desirable fashionable attribute in the early 17th century. Records suggest that the piece was acquired by Helen Larson from a dealer in Connecticut in 1968 but no earlier provenance has been found..

Jacobean Costume
ROOM 5 & The Long Gallery Jacobean Costume The constricting and exaggerated fashions of the Elizabethan era continued into the early part of the seventeenth century. Women still wore tightly boned bodices with elongated ‘stomachers’ (an inverted triangle of stiffened material worn down over the stomach) and enormous skirts that encased the lower part of their bodies like cages. However, by 1620 the excessive padding around the hips of both sexes had disappeared, and fashion began to slim down and adopt a longer, more elegant line. The doublet became more triangular in shape and the huge cartwheel ruff gave way to a falling collar, edged with lace. The Long Gallery From the 1580s the Spanish farthingale, or portrait of James Hay, 1st Earl of Carlisle, hooped petticoat, was superseded by the who wears an elegant black and gold costume, French farthingale, a wheel-like structure that heavily embroidered with gold and silver held the skirt out like a drum. It can be seen thread, with a standing linen collar of cutwork to great effect in the portrait of Lucy Russell, and matching cuffs. Countess of Bedford.
