#267 M'Lady's Corset Misses Extra Small to 3X-Large This fun and fashionable pattern is representative of the late 16th century and early 17th century garments worn by upper class women in the royal courts and peasant women in their daily lives. Square-neck corset laces in back with purchased or handmade eyelets (instructions inside pattern). Scoop-neck corset fastens in front with purchased hook-and-eye tape, and features a peplum that echoes the waistline tabs of 16th-century doublets and corsets. Both versions feature the Elizabethan-era dropped center front waist. Make the scoop-neck version one or two sizes larger and wear as a vest. Pattern includes historical notes and a resource list for supplies. Suggested fabrics: For outer layer, medium to heavy-weight stable fabrics that do not drape, such as silk satin, brocade, damask, shantung, dupioni; cotton damask, brocade; linens and blends. Price $16.95 Quantity requested

#223 A Lady's Chemise Extra Small (Misses 6-8) to 3X Large (Misses 30-32) For hundreds of years, a chemise was that intimate garment worn next to a lady's skin and was often meticulously monogrammed in dainty script during the Victorian era. Today, A Lady's Chemise is the perfect nightgown or simple summer dress. Our flattering chemise was worn during the mid to late 1800s and we offer two appealing versions. Both views have short gathered and ruffled cap sleeves and can be cut low knee-length or at the hip to be worn as a blouse. Delicate pleats accent the center front and back of the neckline, which is adjustable with feminine ribbon drawstrings. Instructions and alphabet designs for a Victorian monogram are included. Suggested Fabrics: Light-weight cottons and blends such as batiste, lawn, voile, gauze, or eyelet; handkerchief linen; silks such as crepe de chine; rayon challis. Originals were made of lightweight muslin or linen. Price $16.95 Quantity requested

Folkwear #226 Princess Slip  Misses 6-16. $14.95 This sleek garment freed early 20th century women from traditional undergarments, which were both elaborate and constricting, oh those dreaded corsets and merry widows!  Classic princess lines give this slip a smooth shape and flattering fit, whether worn underneath other garments or as a lightweight summer dress. A natural companion for #227 Edwardian Bridal Gown. Suggested fabrics: Light to medium-weight cotton and blends such as batiste, lawn, challis, eyelet, or broadcloth; rayon challis; handkerchief linen; silk broadcloth. Original garments were made of fine cotton broadcloth. Price $16.95 Quantity requested
