Dutch Costume, redux

More linkies

Hmmm, I haven't played with this website before. Interesant, no?

I like the headpiece here:

This looks like one of my cheese ladies, dressed down and aged. Hmmmm....

And as evidence for the gal who said on SCA-garb that the Dutch were Puritanical and preferred plain dress, I offer:

There's that funny lined/piped partlet again. Plain dress, simple lines - goldworked chemise.

I've seen the online image. It's currently listed on the website as not being on display. Though whenever I'm next in Cleveland, I might check on it. I don't remember seeing it last time I was there (3 years ago?), but I was interested in other things at the time.

It's not on display because the museum is being renovated right now (nothing is on display! *tragic sigh*) but it was on display when the museum was open, it was in one of the side galleries next to the armour court on the garden-side. Anyway, it's always been one of my favorites, you can practically pet the fur! and you can clearly see the hooks and eyes on her partlet. :) They're supposed to be reopening galleries starting in 2008 so hopefully it'll be back on display soon!
