Henrican gown

   The gown is based on Jane Seymour's portrait (Hans Holbein the Younger, 1536). The hood is made of white twill canvas stiffened with a glue and wires. The front part is covered with white silk and decorated with small jewels and pearls. The lappets are made of a brocade and lined with a white silk. Back of the hood and veils are made of black silk velvet. The frontlet is made of silk damask.
