She is doing a series on coifs and headwear. As of yet she hasn't gotten to the actual coif post (that's her next one) but she has several posts of how to dress the hair and wear ear-irons to help give the correct structure:<br />http://dutchrenaissanceclothing.comJennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08013378967522569657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3307546813979726396.post-16767719816456418632016-11-06T10:55:46.410-08:002016-11-06T10:55:46.410-08:00Thanks so much!!

Sadly her website and Etsy store have been down for some time. I've also purchased coifs from Louise Pass (she's at Woodsholme on Etsy). <br />I also wear my coif with ear-irons (also from Woodsholme), which added to the shape as well.<br /><br />I'd say my pattern is closet to Coif 2B on this site:<br />http://www.marquisofwinchesters.co.uk/Ecwr-Guidelines/coifs.html<br /><br />But my preferred method of wearing coifs at the moment is with the forehead cloth worn over coif rather than under (which I think is more typical). <br /><br />If you're not already part of the Elizabethan Costume grope on Facebook, definitely check them out! They have some great albums for linen headwear...<br /><br />Here:<br />https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=oa.10153055017223996&type=3<br /><br />...and here:<br />https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=oa.10153055861098996&type=3<br /><br />Hope that's somewhat helpful!Jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08013378967522569657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3307546813979726396.post-11419307523649696752016-11-04T13:23:42.319-07:002016-11-04T13:23:42.319-07:00Your dresses are sooo beautifully made!

They look amazing and I have no idea what their pattern looks like except the basic coif. I think they look so beautiful!Celefindelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18206853655505912314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3307546813979726396.post-378233613473666792016-09-03T14:21:20.946-07:002016-09-03T14:21:20.946-07:00Thanks so much, Sara!

I'm lucky insofar that can do a one-for-one scale up from the book, since I'm about the same size as their female measurements. <br /><br />First I made the high-necked version, seen here:<br />http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-gs6OkDqe1x0/UnR02XxIuKI/AAAAAAAAqV0/sPALgGe4_RQ/s1600/testhat.jpg<br /><br />Then I used the same pattern and just cut a square hole for the neckline and faced it with linen (instead of turning the edges):<br />http://wastedweeds.blogspot.com/2016/01/beige-brown-kirtle-with-grey-guards.html<br /><br />And then I paired it with a partlet (as seen here, though not with this ruff):<br />http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-suuCJWzGI6I/VniU3y6lvDI/AAAAAAAArjQ/AcPbdxQmCuE/s1600/unders_001%2Bcopy.jpg<br /><br />Here is the partlet sans ruff: <br />http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-KKvkgjTBtoY/VmN22os5GYI/AAAAAAAArfE/i5zmDw60QI4/s1600/ruff_mo_37.jpg<br /><br />I hope that's a little helpful...<br />I think the smock from Margo Anderson's patterns is pretty similar and would be a pretty safe bet if you wanted to use a pattern. I think people also like the online Elizabethan Smock Generator.<br />Best of luck!<br />Jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08013378967522569657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3307546813979726396.post-37904206355417238812016-09-03T11:20:37.140-07:002016-09-03T11:20:37.140-07:00This is an amazing outfit!!

Could you possibly tell me what pattern you used for your chemise? We are looking at the Tudor Tailor for the other patterns but I am unable to find a chemise on their site.
