*** This waistcoat has been on my to do list for a long time... ...and it still is. Kinda. I originally intended this as a quick project, using the exact pattern and construction method as my trusty old blue waistcoat. The only thing I tweaked was the size of the godets. In addition to gaining a bit of weight, my skirts are narrower and less full than the ones I used to make, which means my waist to hip ratio isn't as large as it used to be.

One-piece garment worn by women from later Middle Ages into Baroque period. Typically worn over a chemise or smock which acted as a slip and under the formal outer garment or gown/surcoat.

Later kirtles could be constructed by combining a fitted bodice with a skirt gathered or pleated into a waist seam. They could lace up the front, back or side-back, and be embellished.

*** I'm not exactly sure what this garment is meant to be... A gown? A kirtle? The inspiration came from the Trevelyon Miscellany of 1608, a collection of images appropriated and later redrawn and coloured by Thomas Trevelyon. I fell in love with this image immediately. It appears to be a single front lacing layer worn over an exposed smock, paired with an apron and a linen partlet with attached or integral ruff. Now, it's never a good idea to take coloured drawings at face value and it's…
