"English transitional hood"
Jan. 21st, 2006 09:37 amI am primarily adressing
myladyswardrobe and
ninya_mikhaila, but I would love help from any of you.
I have some question about what Drea Leed calls the "english transitional hood". I think they are way cool and want to make one for my new dress. The dress is based on Holbein's sketch of the More family, where two of the women wear this kind of hood. He has also drawn it on other sketches. But what I do wonder is if anybody has seen this type of hood in colour (I'm not counting the later copy of the More family portrait, you can't use that as a primary source) since I don't know what kind of material and colours to use.
