A little history of the big collar. Part 2. Master class
Collars of the XVI-XVII centuries. History. Master class on sewing.
My name is Olga Sidorova. And I make porcelain dolls in historical costumes. The costumes on my dolls are detachable, made according to the restored old patterns.
Before starting work, I carefully study the information, look at the paintings, read the publications of professionals so that the costume is as similar as possible to the original.
I bring to your attention a story about luxurious collars of the 16-17 centuries and a master class on their sewing.
The title photo shows the doll Anna of Austria based on the painting by Peter Paul Rubens "Portrait of Anna of Austria", 1625. Author - Olga Sidorova.
Happy viewing!
The master class is useful. The informational part is no less interesting. Thanks a lot to Olga. I have a doll with a collar like this and it was incredibly difficult to do!
