This is my last batch of 17th century pictures. I hope you'll enjoy them! I like the "buttons" that alternate down the front. A very long-haired lady- don't you think it looks like the clasp on the shoulder also pins the hair to it? If you enlarge you can see that the bodice actually have seams, even if it looks smooth at first. I don't think these sleeves reflect the current fashion, but it's pretty nevertheless. I'm not sure that I like this gown, but I think it's a nice contrast with the black bows. Is her collar drool-worthy, or what? It may look like another boring old black dress, but enlarge it and enjoy the details like the seams on the bodice and the skirt that has first been pleated in small pleats and then big ones.
