Council Velvet - Research summary
Jul. 26th, 2005 05:49 pmI've been home sick today. I feel very strange. Like I have a sore throat in my lungs and a lot of congestion in my chest. I've felt kind of drained and not feeling like sewing today. So I just sat in front of my computer and did costuming research, specifically on Aragorn's Council Velvet. There's just not a lot of information on this outfit already. But I've got a good collection of pictures and watched the Council and Dream scenes a few times. I think I've got a good handle on it.
( Here's what I've got so far )
I've got a sketch of the under tunic so far and will do the surcoat tomorrow and work on more details (like those frog closures, buttons and the yoke etching/embroidery pattern). Other than that, I think I've got it down for the most part.
Question, comments, suggestions?
