Course Outline:

How to make Tudor and Stuart clothing in the original manner.

We shall be looking at how to draw up a pattern of a doublet or bodice as it was done at the time and how to shape and stiffen the garments to fit.

We will go through pad stitching and bombasting techniques along with how to use a variety of period stiffenings to create the varied shapes of sixteenth and seventeenth century garments for both sexes.
