Dogessa Gown

Inspiration for the new gown

 
Similar styles all taken from
Mores Italiae,'1575
Unknown Artist, Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library, Yale University

Partlet
Camicia
Flat front bodice
Lantern sleeve
Wide sleeve coat
Necklaces
Girdle
Earrings
Gloves
Hat. *there are some concerns the hat may be presumptuous of sca rank so jury is out if I'll attempt it
Veil

I'm also thinking of doing a similar gown in a diffrent color scheme with a doublet over dress but we will see how this one goes- maybe I'll save that for the next IRCC
