Study Planning Neckring Skirt Brustfleck Bodice Sleeves Finished gown

As the Cranach gown is shown in so many variations in all his pictures, I've decided not to make an exact copy of one of those gowns but take bits and pieces that I like best from all the portraits - and combine them in a single gown.
I have also finally decided that I will make the gown in its original colors - garnet red velvet and golden inserts.


This is the picture I will base my version on - mostly.
This is a pieced version of Cranach's 'Magdalena'; I've pieced her together from various smaller images plus some magnified details I've found on the net.

So... I want (written in no particular order):

The necklace from this:

The silver embroidery on gold ground for the front insert plus the neck banding from this:

Detail:

From the first mentioned Magdalena painting I will also use the sleeves, detail:

...but with the golden lacings from the painting of St. Catherine (which will also be used for the front middle)...

...detail:

The basic skirt layout from this:

with the three golden stripes inserts.


From this portrait I'll also take the shift / chemise / smock / whatever you want to call it. Detail:

The rather plain look of the golden front sides will be decorated with pearls, just as it was done on this:

gown - just on the golden, patterned ground.

Oh, and I also want at the hair netting this:

Detail:

I also like the style of that bodice with its high collar very much. Hm, if I have enough of the velvet left, then I can perhaps construct another bodice - this one :-)

And I want the hat from this:

painting in the middle.

However, before actually making a Cranach gown, proper study is in order. So let's continue with a studying page before actually starting on the gown!

Contact: Please write to naergilien@yahoo.de with the word "Costume" in the subject line. My mail server will delete all mails automatically that don't have this word in the subject line; except if you are on my whitelist (which you are probably not if I have never written to you).
It may take me some days to answer - please be patient. If I shouldn't answer within a week, it's almost safe to say that I didn't receive your mail (for what reason ever) - in that case please resend it.

All images of my costumes and also the tutorial pictures as well as the descriptions of my work and various techniques on this site are copyrighted to me.
So don't take my pictures for publishing (e.g. other websites, books etc.; no matter if they are commercial or not) without asking me before you do so and especially not without getting my permission to do this.
My server is mostly set up in a way that it doesn't allow hot linking on images; so if you need to link to me, please link to one of my sites (hint: that's everything ending with ".htm" or "html" in your browser's address bar) on which you found the picture that you would like to link to.

All images of paintings or original movie costumes were not taken by me (except if stated so) and are on this site for educational purposes.
