Renaissancedress

One of my current projects is to reconstruct the dress, worn by Mary Sidney on this painting by Hans Eworth from c. 1555.

So far I have made "A pair of bodies" that is similar to the effigy corset. A smock, a bumrole, a farthingale, a skirt in black velvet, a forepart and I´m currently working on the bodice. So I still have the forsleeves, the partlet and the headwear and all the accessories left.
