lovely:) I'm looking forward to seeing how it looks with the plastron as well:)
One thing I keep forgetting with these dresses is the sketch Holbein did of the woman with the closed skirt dress. I'm so used to thinking of the stomacher over a bodice that laces at the front with an open skirt (which is the vast majorityof portrait gowns.)
That sketch was contemporary with the More sketch as well wasn't it?

I really really love the hood, it is gorgeous:)
