Techniques and patterns for making historically accurate period clothing
Jane Malcolm-Davies
Ninya Mikhaila
|
| |
The Tudor Tailor is an essential source book for accurately reconstructing clothing from the 16th century, concentrating on the reigns of Henry VIII and Elizabeth I (1509 to 1603).
The evidence available for accurate reconstruction of our ancestors� dress is fragmentary and contradictory. This book aims to disentangle this evidence and show how the many barriers to achieving successful reproduction costume can be overcome with well-directed enthusiasm. It will appeal to educators, costume designers, re-enactors, and people with a general or academic interest in 16th-century dress.
