EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases the elegant and intricate English costumes of the early 17th century, specifically from the year 1620. The man in the photograph is dressed in a stylish doublet, featuring overlapping, pointed tabs that add an air of sophistication and elegance. The doublet is paired with a cloak, which was a common accessory for men of the aristocracy and nobility during this period. The man's shoes are adorned with roses, a symbol of the House of Lancaster and a popular motif among the English gentry. The woman in the photograph is equally stunning, wearing a ruff collar that is in a transitional stage between the ruff and the falling band. Her bodice is fitted at the waist, accentuating her figure, and is adorned with triple cuffs, adding an extra layer of intricacy to her outfit. This style was popular among the Duchess of Richmond and other women of high status during this period. The year 1620 marked a time of transition in English fashion, as the Renaissance influence began to take hold, blending with traditional English styles. This image provides a glimpse into the opulence and grandeur of the English aristocracy and nobility during this period. The intricate details of the costumes, from the overlapping tabs on the man's doublet to the woman's triple cuffs, speak to the wealth and status of those who wore them.
