In this video, I sew a linen early 16th-century kirtle using mostly modern sewing methods but historical shapes and all visible seams hand-finished in under 24 hours! My outer fabric is a mid-weight linen, as is my lining fabric, the bodice front is interlined with two different kinds of heavy canvas weight linens for better bust support. Kirtles are the support and petticoat under a layer of clothing worn over a smock or shift, under the gown but partly visible from underneath the gown. Since mine is mostly intended for modern summer wear as a historybounding piece I, for now, didn't make the other layers to go with it but wear it with my early 20th century chemises. My pattern is from the Tudor Tailor, a must-have book in this era's fashions. https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/113261389/the-tudor-tailor-reconstructing-16th?ref=shop_home_active_4&crt=1 If you are interested in learning more about the pleating method used for the skirts in my 18th century petticoat video I focus more on that. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzjYsuZuIYg&t=107s
