  1. 1580's Robe and Kirtle

    1580's Robe and Kirtle

    A black velvet was a popular fabric for this robe over a kirtle. It's a less formal look, and was often worn during pregnancy and nursing. They were often richly embroidered, but since I don't embroider, I used lace.
  2. Dogaressa

    Dogaressa

    All hand sewn, I made the piping, and also embroidered and beaded by hand too. It took 80 hours to sew it, and right now it's in my workroom in pieces, being revamped.

    Countess Dress 1570's

    Inspired by a portrait this dress is all synthetic velvet and satin. The black velvet is painted. I made this one in 2009 for an art competition.
