This was one of my largest projects. The brief was to recreate a similar garmet to that in the painting, but with an autumnal colour scheeme. The costume were for a crowd that were all going to be a similar colour scheme. The costume had 7 different elements all listed above. I carried out research to try and use accurate patterns to construct the garments, and used museum examples to pick the most appropriate fabrics. 

I used linen fabrics for the outer petticoat and stays to create an accurate look, but used cottons on the other layers to reduce costs. For the shift and apron I wanted to create some natural autumnal browns and oranges. In order to create a light shade I hand dyded the fabrics, with extensive testing before hand to insure a perfect shade.
