You two are doing just fine. I'm drooling over the detail Isabella...That partlet looks like its trimmed with finger braid.
It probably is. ;D It's a close up of one of Eleanor de Toledo's partlets.
Here's a sheer partlet shown over a gown:

And here is a close up of one I plan to do in the next year or so:

Ohhh... so much pretty!!! :)
I have got to make the Eleanor of Toledo pearl partlet.
I am hereby adding it to the list of winter projects-since I'm not going to make another gown this time. Does anyone have pics of a recent effort?
I would like to examine a photo of a beaded partlet....
Eleanora Dianora de Toledo- anyone have a better photo that shows partlett details?

Looks like it is, Rowan! I love pin tucks!!!

Moda a Firenze describes it as silk or linen, starched and pleated down when wet, to create that specific pattern. It had to be repeated after every wear, or nearly so anyway.
I have wondered, though, if some of them are not pleated or tucked utilizing metal threads in the silk. Some closeups of a Bronzino portrait shows metal shine in the tucks. And that sme was permanently tucked down also makes sense. So I guess there were more than one way to make them.
Thought it was a good time to bump this thread! :)
Someone asked for partley eye candy? Italian, as usual...
