EMILIE AUTUMN 2017 PROFESSIONAL
(Yeah, not really shocking given that I’m a professional librarian.) This week’s theme is fantasy and especially different styles of fantasy. I really enjoy sorting things and organizing them into themes. Oh, before I forget, there’s a second version of today’s design on the Patreon page for my Patrons.īy the way, this week is a themed week. It was invented in the 1820s for fastening gloves and such. Mostly with the garters, as elasticized garters with metal fasteners were a thing in the 1890s.Įlastic is actually much older than most people think. The stockings and shoes have a vague 19th century thing going on. (Also, is it just me or would Operatic Milk Maids be a pretty good name for some sort of feminist punk band? Sort of Emilie Autumn, but with more cows.)Īnyway, the top is kinda 18th century-ish. I’d love to say it was operatic milk maids, but it wasn’t. I don’t even remember if there was a specific inspiration.

Opera costumes are on the list of things I’ve never drawn, but kinda want to draw someday.Īnyway, I’d love to say something deep and meaning full about this one, but I really don’t have anything. This is less princess and more something a charming milk maid wears in an opera. I tend to think of princesses as being more formal. It’s a fantasy outfit, but it is not really a princess theme.
EMILIE AUTUMN 2017 HOW TO
I’m not entirely sure how to describe today’s paper doll outfit. The drape on the headdress should be transparent, but I didn’t really want to try I must have re-sketched the angle of that headdress a dozen times. The hardest thing to draw for today’s paper doll outfit was the hennin headdress. There’s more images of 15th century dress on my 15th century Pinterest board. The colors in today’s gown are based on Boccace, Des cleres et nobles femmes, traduction française anonyme. I really loved the green, red and the blue belt. I really wanted to play around with color as well. One is a painting and the rest are manuscript pages, mostly from France. The sources of today’s 15th century dress were Boccace, Des cleres et nobles femmes, traduction française anonyme circa 1488-1496, Boccaccio, Des cas des nobles hommes et femmes circa 1475 and Maria Maddalena Baroncelli Christus circa 1470. If you think of the stereotypical princess than you are thinking of the hennin headdress. They got pretty extreme over the course of the century, I have to say. It was usually cone shaped or a flattened cone. So, it’s not as transparent as it should be. I used a partlet on today’s gown, but getting the transparency was tough. The neckline was sometime filled in with a sheer linen partlet. The deep low neck was enough to reveal the decorated front of the kirtle beneath. These gowns were in a high-waisted style with fullness over the belly decorated with a super wide belt. Women’s fashions of the 15th century included a long gown worn over a kirtle or under-gown. Today’s Marisole Monday paper doll gown is a 15th century dress. Need a Marisole Monday & Friends Lady Paper Doll to wear today’s outfit? Pick One Out Here. It really does help keep the blog on the internets. If you’d like to see it, consider becoming a patron. That version is posted over on my Patreon page for my patrons to enjoy. If it was in more neon colors than I think there would be a Fifth Element vibe. I reminds me a little of the 1990s Star Treks- The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine and Voyager.
I had a really hard time coming up with a color scheme for this set. I mean, sure if that’s what your paper dolls are into, no judgement from this corner, but my paper dolls are going to wear the shorts. Given the way the dress/tunic thing is cut it would be rather exposing if there were no shorts involved. The idea is that the various bands wrap around the paper doll’s body and the shorts are layered under the dress/tunic thing. It’s also an outfit that I am a little worried might work better in concept than in execution. So, I was thinking a lot about layering and the interesting dynamics that layering can create. But I also drew it a while ago, so I can’t be totally certain.
I went back through my Cyberpunk/Sci-fi Fashion Pinterest board and I didn’t see anything that reminded me of it. I’m frankly not totally sure if I had reference images for this. I usually try to keep pretty good track of where things come from.
