Eleonora di Toledo’s Burial Gown

Puppenkleidung
Von Zeit zu Zeit mache ich auch Puppenkleidung – hauptsächlich für amerikanische 40-cm-Modepuppen. Dies allerdings nur, wenn ich a) die Puppe und b) das Kostüm mag… wie auch immer, hier sind einige meiner Puppenkleider: Satine aus ‚Moulin Rouge‘ – Black Diamonds Satine aus ‚Moulin Rouge‘- Rote Verführerin Mina aus „Bram Stoker’s Dracula“ Königin Isabella aus […]

Meine Kostüme
In diesem Teil meines Webs werde ich meine Kostüme inklusive des Herstellungsprozesses zeigen. Ich habe diesen Teil der Seite so aufgeteilt, als das ich die Kostüme in vier Kategorien aufgeteilt habe: Elizabethanisch, Viktorianisch, ‚Verschiedene‘ und ‚Andere‘ Kostüme. Dies habe ich getan, um eine bessere und logischere Aufteilung zu erhalten. Jedes Kostüm hat eine „Folgt mir!“ […]
Real-Life Research
You would probably be rather surprised how many things you can still find from Elizabethan times in your close environment if you just look for them; and sometimes you might stumble over interesting oddities.

Undergarments

Janet Arnold describes in Patterns of Fashion that… „Under (the overdress) was (at the point when the tomb was opened in 1857) another of (…) crimson velvet (…). (…) There is no trace of a skirt (now) for the crimson velvet bodice (…). The velvet bodice fastens at the front with hooks and eyes (…). […]
