Title: Partlets...with or without ruffs?
Post by: Rowan MacD on April 01, 2014, 09:35:50 AM
  I want to make a small, detachable ruff for my outfit to wear with a partlet.   What kind of partlet works best for this?   Recommendations for patterns would be welcome.
  Collarless?
  Small (maybe 1-2") , stand up, plain collar?

I have a couple of partlets, but the ruffs/ ruffles are built in.
  I see in a few portraits that some nobles had no issue with adding a detachable ruff directly below the shirt/partlet ruffle..Has anyone done this?

 I am going with the basic MA partlet, in linen, sans neck ruff.
