A superb talk with lovely illustrations. The rules of sumptuary laws were fascinating. The richness of the courtiers’ and Royal dress was clearly shown. I was interested in the coldness of the climate then, and it being the reason for the many layers the Tudors wore. All in all a super way to spend an hour. Thank you, Siobhan. I shall prolong the pleasure by reading your book, which arrived yesterday. I’m looming forward to the chatroom event on the 25th June.
I’ve just caught up on this. A great talk on dress and dazzle, with the bonus of careful analysis of the portraits and their symbols. Thank you!
Excellent presentation!
