Baroness Esperanza’s dress is based on a 1535 woodcut from Erlangen.
1535 Woodcut
This dress is made in the exact same style as the peach-colored dress. The new items in this outfit are a headband & hair net and a gathered apron. These outfits were made in the space of three weeks for their Baronial Investiture.

We bought the linen on Grayline linen. Under Esperanza’s dress, she is wearing a yellow linen petticoat and a white linen untergoller. These follow the same construction as shown in previous posts.
(The Baron shed his outer coat because of the heat.)
