 Based on historic garments, this outfit included a red shot silk dupioni doublet, white linen shirt with embroidered blackwork at collar and cuffs, and black cotton breeches. |
||||
| The Elizabethan silk
dupioni doublet was based on a historic leather
doublet from 1567. It was made from shot red and black 100%
silk dupioni that was interlined and then lined with black satin
acetate. The cut of this doublet is more historically
accurate than most of our other doublet styles. The original
included pocket flaps on both sides at the front, only one of which was
functional. Our version had two functional pockets for
lightweight items at the front. There were 9 brass
filligree dome shaped buttons and loops for
the front closure. The shape and style of these buttons is
historically accurate. At each shoulder, there are black velvet ribbon loops for decoration, and black trim around all edges, including sleeves, skirting, pocket flaps, and collar. |
