At last one arrives at the diamond-shaped head-dress worn in this reign, and, in this reign, elaborated in every way, elaborated, in fact, out of existence. Famous for his furious temper and tendency to execute anyone and everyone that angered him, including his own wives, it’s clear it was important to him that he made an impression. Red Persian Cat Art Print, Cat King, Cat Wall Art, Cat Mom Gifts, Cat Home Decor, A4 (8.3" x 11.5") Separate pairs of sleeves were worn with the waistcoats, or with the petti-cotes, a favourite sleeve trimming being broad velvet bands.

This waistcoat was generally of richly ornamented material (Henry in purple satin, embroidered with his initials and the Tudor rose; Henry in brocade covered with posies made in letters of fine gold bullion). Or in the writings of Tertullian, called by Sigismund Feyerabendt, citizen and printer of Frankfort, a 'most strict censor who most severely blames women:' 'Come now,' says Tertullian, 'if from the first both the Milesians sheared sheep, and the Chinese spun from the tree, and the Tyrians dyed and the Phrygians embroidered, and the Babylonians inwove; and if pearls shone and rubies flashed, if gold itself, too, came up from the earth with the desire for it; and if now, too, no lying but the mirror's were allowed, Eve, I suppose, would have desired these things on her expulsion from Paradise, and when spiritually dead.' German Coarse Gold-web Nets Large brooches decorated the bodices, brooches with drop ornaments, the body of the brooch of fine gold workmanship, many of them wrought in Italy. Do you know your Spanish farthingale from your Drum? Or your English hood from your French? Types of Tudor fashion evolved throughout the period. What did the Tudors wear?Now we take the waistcoat B. As you may see from the drawing showing the German form of dress, this waistcoat was really a petti-cote, a waistcoat with sleeves. One of the women brings forward a number of attires of false hair, golden and red, and from these the Queen chooses one. It is a close periwig of tight red curls, among which pearls and pieces of burnished metal shine. With great care this wig is fastened on to the Queen's head, and she watches the process with her bright eyes and still features in the great mirror. It is difficult to keep two interests running together, but I myself have felt, when reading other works on the subject, that the way in which the various articles of clothing are mixed up is more disturbing than useful. The rich would wear the fanciest versions of these clothes that were decorated with gold and jewels. The middle-class Tudor people would wear slightly plainer versions, while the poor people would only wear simple, loose-fitting cotton clothes.

The wide sleeve to the gown, once part and parcel of the gown, was at last made separate from it - as a cuff more than a sleeve naturally widening - and in the next reign, among the most fashionable, left out altogether. This under-sleeve was generally made of a fine rich-patterned silk or brocade, the same stuff which formed the under-gown; the sleeve was a binding for the very full lawn or cambric sleeve which showed in a ruffle at the wrist and in great puffs under the forearm.

Are you ready to meet the pioneers? There are two distinct classes of fashion to be seen, the German-Swiss fashion and the English fashion, a natural evolution of the national dress. Does taking on a role like this where there is such a notable physical transformation ever feel scary or just exciting? Heavily starched and elaborately pleated ruffs were fashionable throughout the period. A specialist laundress was employed to clean the ruff daily.

These laws dictated who was allowed to wear which materials and styles during Tudor time. This was nothing new - there were laws just as strict during the Medieval period in England. For example, only Henry VIII was allowed to wear certain furs, and only the monarch was allowed to wear purple. This is because clothes were such a status symbol during Tudor times. What were Henry VIII’s clothes like? Here, to show what dainty creatures were our lady ancestors, to show from what beef and blood and bone we come, I give you (keep your eye meanwhile upon the wonderful dresses) the daily allowance of a Maid of Honour. Men and women dressed very differently - though there were some similarities between male and female Tudor clothes. The layer over this would be a gown which matched the kirtle and was warm, and probably quite heavy too. One style was the French gown which was popular with Tudor royalty and had gigantic, heavy sleeves.
