Sewing Pattern - Women's Italian Renaissance Gowns, c. 1470-1505. provides patterns for 7 gowns & 1 tabard (sizes 8-18). Two have split skirts. underskirts, and stomachers, to fake an underdress. The underskirts and stomachers can be left off, replaced by a real underdress. Four of the gown patterns have sleeves that tie on. The Renaissance of the 15th and 16th centuries began in politically splintered Italy. The age was humanistic, like the people themselves; the clothing was individualistic, competitive, and even playful. While there were broad similarities, regional variations were the norm. Fashion for woman changed radically after 1460. Evolving from the houpelande (PP26), the bodice was cut separately from the skirt, above the natural waist, and became tight fitting. Skirts could be gathered or pleated or neither. They were often split in front to show the skirt of a sleeveless underdress, which could also show under a V-neck. The chemise (PP90) decorated or not, also often showed at the neck. The sleeves could be slashed to show the chemise sleeve, and were often laced or tied to the bodice, rather than sewn on. This allowed different sets of sleeves to be worn with one gown... [Read More]

Sewing Pattern - Men's Elizabethan Garments, c. 1558-1605. The late Tutor period was a time of transition and uncertainty with 3 rulers in 11 years (not to mention Lady Jane Grey, who only ruled for 9 days), and the country endured violent switches from Protestant to Catholic. During the early part of this period the men's styles changed faster than woman's fashions. Gowns (PP53) declined in popularity, and a new emphasis was placed on the lower trunk. Even with the peascod belly doublet and trunk hose, men's styles could not compete with the sheer bulk of the women's gowns during Elizabeth's later reign. Late in the period men wore neck ruffs and later the falling collar, sometimes together. They also wore wrist ruffs and cuffs (PP90 - sized for women). Period Patterns number 58, Men's Elizabethan Garments, c. 1558-1605, supplies patterns for 7 doublets, 5 pairs of Trunkhose, 1 Venetians, 1 slops, a falling collar and cuffs (sizes 34-54).

Sewing Pattern - Early Tudor Men's Garments, c. 1495-1537. The Tudor period marked the beginning of the Renaissance in England, and fashion (especially after 1509) reflected the change. Henry VII, who usurped the throne in 1485, was extremely frugal, and fashion changed during his reign. Henry VIII inherited the throne with a large treasury at the age of 18, and the court blossomed. He was insecure, aggressive, blatantly masculine and suddenly extremely rich. All of which reflected in the opulent new fashions, especially for men. During Henry's reign, styles for both sexes combined elements of German, Spanish and Italian fashions, with heavy French influence overall. The quintessence of what is usually thought of as "Tudor" fashion is shown in view IV for men, and view V for women. During Henry VII's reign, the houpelande (PP26) became a robe or gown, opening down the front, soon left unbelted and open. This was worn over a skirted doublet, shirt and hose (PP43). Slashing became popular, and the modest codpiece became a grotesque brag. As Henry VIII aged he favored short full gowns to hide his increasing bulk, thus creating a square silhouette. This pattern contains 3 gowns, 3 skir... [Read More]

Sewing Pattern - Period Patterns number 101, Medieval Military Garments. Medieval Military Garments Chain mail and plate armor were very expensive, and economically unfeasible for the average soldier of the Middle Ages. Most had to make do with padded garments. But even those who could afford armor had to wear padded garments underneath for comfort. Other pieces of clothing were designed to be worn over armor for additional protection or as decoration. Some of these garments were designed for civilian as well as military usage. The primary garment for all soldiers was the padded gambeson, worn alone under armor. Surcoats, worn over armor, gave protection from the elements, and could be decorative as well. A coat of plates gave added protection over mail. Padded lentners and angel-wing tunics, both with puffed chests, were worn under breastplates, or alone. Medieval Military Garments, has 3 gambesons, 3 surcoats, 3 hose, 1 codpiece, 1 cuisse, and a renal belt with pockets for plates to protect the kidneys (sizes S-XL).

Sewing Pattern - Tunics, c. 650-1310 A.D. Chest sizes 16-54" included. Tunics were perhaps the first style to spread throughout Europe, worn from Ireland to Russia, Scandinavia to Byzantium to Spain. They were worn by almost everyone, peasant to noble, from Roman times through the 1300's. Many of the same variations are seen again and again, although a few appear to be limited to one sex or the other and woman's tunics or undertunics were always long. Class differences were shown by the fabric and decoration as well as the cut of the tunic. A nobleman at court might wear a long, full tunic of silk with jeweled embroidery, while working in the field, his poorest peasant would wear a short tunic of coarse wool . Men would usually wear hose (PP43 or PP101) with their tunics, but women didn't. In the first half of the 14th century the discovery that one could cut the armholes and sleeve caps curved, thus achieving a better fit, caused some change in the basic style. With this change the tunic continued to be worn, in a more or less modified form for another 200 years, especially among the lower classes. Pattern has 14 tunics for men, woman and children, with most parts being interchang... [Read More]

Sewing Pattern - Capes and Tabards., c. 650-1650. Throughout the "dark ages" (the early medieval period) capes were indispensable for protection against the weather, as well as fashionable articles of clothing in their own right. They were worn by both sexes of all classes and ages. While there were some variations, the same basic capes were found throughout extended Europe. In the Middle Ages the cut of capes became more sophisticated, and many new variations appeared. Tabards and ganaches reflected the growing preoccupation with fit and fashion. In the Renaissance, these changes led to capes often being reduced to more of a fashion accessory than serious protection against cold or wet weather. THis pattern provides patterns for 13 capes, 3 separate hoods, a tabard, small capelet, and a ganache (sized for chests 16" to 54"). This pattern goes with PP16, PP21, PP23, PP26, PP41, PP43, PP51, PP53, PP56, PP58, PP93, PP101 and PP102. Great For SCA Garb, SCA Living history, Renaissance Festivals.
