1580s Italian Peasant Dress – Historical Alterations
So I guess this isn't really a picture of the cloak, but what I decided to wear under it for the other pictures. Yay black dress! Nice and contrasty with the apron and shift. The bodice pattern on this one is pointed instead of flat like most of the ones I make, and I am sort of realizing that it is quite flattering, I should make more like it.

This cuirass is a specialized type of costume armor. In addition to protecting its owner's torso, it was clearly intended to simulate a civilian jacket, or doublet, with a row of buttons down the front. The owner would have opened it like an ordinary doublet since the two halves are hinged to a narrow backplate.
