Formal dress
The dress was inspired by the
painting of Margaret Layton from 1620-25 (Marcus Gheeraets,
British Galleries). The loose gown and the jacket are made of a
herringbone woolen fabric. An apron and a coif are of linen
textile. For the ruff 8 meters of lace were used. Patterns are
taken from J. Tiramani-Seventeenth-Century Women's Dress
Patterns: Book 1, ISBN- 1851776311.
