Eleanor of Aquitaine

Another request from lejays17, here is one of the most fascinating women in History, Eleanor of Aquitaine. If you're not familiar with this name, do check her out!




:) Before you think that I became color-blind all of a sudden, the red hair was a requested alteration. And, since purple/pink would clash with it something amazing, I changed the ribbons to red.
The dress is decorated with gold ribbon, some yarn embroidery, beads and french knots.
And the mirror is an actual mirror. =)



Her tiara is made of crochet chain that was crocheted into a chain a second time before I applied the beads.



At first I considered giving her tippets, but I checked my books and tippets were a couple of centuries too futuristic for Eleanor, so I went with bead buttons and a bit more embroidery.
