I lOVE the cap. Unfortunately the text says that it's a fictive portrait of a1 4th century person, so the cap can be an "exotic" accessory used to signify "medeival".

Yeah - that's what I pegged it as as well. The dress looks about right though, which is why I did post it after all.

It is a 16th C Period Painting.
I think it is supposed to represent a 14th C person.

I have googled a little and found this on a quick search

and.... Based on the Name of the Painting.

That's a great pic, love the hat though frualeydis is undoubtedly right about that. Still, neat pic.

Or you could make the garment and point out that it is in fact a fantasy recreation from the 16th C. Like litensessa did with her "St Goran and the dragon dress".

Possibly, if you mean 'you' in the general sense. If you meant 'you' as in /me/ I don't particularily want a white dress. Of course, you have some cuts of white fabric as well :)

It was the general "you",
nah my white linen is going venetian I think.
I have the blingy yellow shoes that need company :)

I want that dress! *drool* It's white, it's unpractical... It tickles my imagination.

Suddenly I feel like rushing off to the fabric store, instead of grading papers!
