1510 Tudor Gown Grey

Period Correct Clothing to Fit Your Style…

Tudor Gown of cotton jacquard and faux fur
Cotton twill lining
Petticoat of shot silk
Machine sewn inner seams
Hand finished (hems, edging, and eyelets)
Cotton was used for comfort and washability- this gets worn when it is much hotter than old England
Minimal boning in open channels so it can be removed for machine washing
This project was a less formal Tudor Gown I made with patterns drafted by combining the Tudor Tailor underkirtle and my body block
This is one project for my A&S 50 Challenge, 50 things from my stash, since all the fabrics aside from the fur were already in my stash…
2017 Update- I added fur trim all around (tacked on for washing) and made a fur lined wool partlet which I LOVE- so soft and snuggly!
