Boots before corset...the renaissance faire attendee's mantra.

Love the outfit! Two different bodices allowing the outfit to be worn on regular occasions is brilliant! I also looked for the neck ruff, hope it’s added later.

I was waiting for the ruff as the drawing showed. But a very beautiful costume!

The ruff is missing, but otherwise perfect! Btw, the ruffs of this period fascinate me - it would be great to talk more about them some other time (creation, maintenance, wearing...).

What a dream to be able to wear an accurate dress in a real location. ❤❤❤

Omg, did I click FAST!<br>Whoever is responsible for this- feel free to make more!<br>It'd be amazing if you could create a display, dedicated to the change between Tudor/ Elizabethan & Jacobean/ Stuart theatre/ Court entertainment, recreating various of the masque costumes (Jones/ assistants left more than a few pencil <i>&</i> painted colour references for the masques) - a book I treasure, <i>Life in Elizabeth's England</i> has a section on Elizabethan theatre, but seeing the images brought to life- it's something else...

Amazing dress but what really makes it shine is the model's pose and air while walking.

Thank you, thank you, thank you! I never understood how separate sleeves worked and now I do! The model was magnificent when she walked and the dress came to life! ❤

Thank you for debunking the age old myth of stays being constrictive!
