Now to some paintings of ladies from the 1600’s :)

Wonderful painting of Margaret of Austria in a lovely black silk and linen dress this gown is still very reminiscent of the 1500’s very Tudor/Elizabethan looking but just right for this little girl, this gown is from around 1600-10, I know its not very spring like sadly but I had to add it in.

Ok this one will make up for the black dress up above, painting of Anne of Denmark 1605 this dress is very grand and very spring like with the white silk and silver embroidery and remember they used real silver back then wow :) Lots of pearls draped on this dress and lovely rosette ribbons of pink and blue and tight princess waist and lovely high lace collar this dress is just grand and very Elizabethan if you ask me, her hair is piled high a trend queen Elizabeth started and has a jeweled hair ornament.

Wonderful painting of a beautiful girl named Susanna Huygens in a 1630’s white almost silver satin gown this gown just shines luxuriant fabric with fine lace low cut with ruffles and fine princess waist on this lovely gown.
Photobucket
Ah another dress with super puffed sleeves this dress is all so 1630’s I love the peach colored silk and the princess waist, this dress is just gorgeous, and what a lovely lady too :)
Now to the 1700’s, I just love this time in fashion, now don’t get me wrong I love the 1600’s just as much, but I hope you will enjoy this post with all the spring time clothes :) And like I said some will be long some will be short but its all worth it to see such loveliness if you ask me.
