more pics from Dance oot
Lovely Master Bertrik sent me a CD of pics from the January event, including this one, which shows my refurbished gown best:
I'm really pleased with the way the fur trim turned out - it really changes the way the gown hangs, and draws the gown hem straight down - and the sleeves. They look a bit looser than I intended, but I'd prefer them loose to uncomfortably tight.
Also happy with the headdress - now just have to find the nicest example from the Luttrell Psalter or similar to support it!
Best of all, Robert likes the whole outfit - he hadn't seen it all assembled before I went to Dance Moot, so this is its unveiling all over again.
