1499 Breeches Doublet Gentleman Shirt Stomacher Wear Wears 15th Fashionable Short
EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 15th century print captures the elegance and sophistication of a noble couple from England during the late medieval period, around the year 1499. The lady, gracefully dressed for summer, dons a stylish stomacher, an intricately embroidered piece that flatters her figure by accentuating her waistline. The stomacher is attached to a gown with voluminous sleeves and a full skirt, which is adorned with delicate floral patterns and rich fabrics. The gentleman, equally fashionable, wears a short doublet over a white shirt, showcasing the refined fashion sense of the time. His doublet, made of luxurious wool or velvet, is cinched at the waist with a belt and features decorative slashes on the sleeves. Beneath the doublet, he wears trousers, or "breeches," which are held up by a girdle. The breeches are fitted at the thighs and flare out at the hips, revealing the fashionable hose that covers his legs. The couple's attire reflects the opulence and grandeur of the late 15th century, a time when fashion was an essential aspect of social status and identity. The intricate designs, rich fabrics, and meticulous attention to detail in their clothing demonstrate the wealth and influence of the couple, making this print a captivating window into the past.
