Dress of Marie de Medici

  The back view of the Marie de Medici gown. The pattern of the large skirt and bodice is an alternation of the concept published in The Tudor Tailor (N. Mikhaila, J.Malcolm-Davies). The bodice underlaied by stiff cloth and reinforced on the chest by plastic wheal-bones is fastened in the front by hiden lacing and hooks. Large padded sleeves are sewn according to the pattern designed by Ing. arch, Martin Hrib.
