| Big Bear Renaissance Faire, August 2010 |
Dress with corset under, worn atop a farthingale. Pull-throughs on sleeves. Two-piece hat with pearl-edged coif underneath and pleating inside.
Same coat as previous King's Costume, but with a much more pleasing doublet and bases underneath to better contrast the many gold buttons and accents that I applied. Genuine pull-throughs on the chest and sleeves.

Fun Extra: many parts of this dress had a past life as this.
His Majesty's Admirer is a Milkmaid from the Kronenburg Ren Faire. Her outfit is not mine.

Court Dress that has been worn for characters of Anne Boleyn and Catherine Howard, both on whom are endearing because they were each beheaded for Treason.
Theatrical secret: The "Pearls" are actually drops of puffy paint. Just as nice looking, even from just a few feet away, but around a quarter of the cost and trouble of fabric with pearls sewn on.

First Henry VIII outfit I made, on left, originally worn in 2003. Man on right is Baron from Kronenburg, which is a Faire in Corona, California. German outfit not mine.
