This whole renaissance costume is about 90% authentically made to the time period of the renaissance. I made the costume, by the way. Lol. I fell in love with the sage and gold brocade once I saw it!
Brocade, cotton voile, satin, ribbon, piping, gold thread embroidery.

Its fabulous. How long did it take you to make? I think I will have to make one and hope that it gets used in our next production.

I actually haven’t worn it yet! Lol. I would’ve worn it out on Halloween but I didn’t have anywhere to go and I had school stuff to work on. So yeah… Oh well. Maybe I’ll wear it out next year? :)
