Peasant to Mid-class jerkins/doublets
Full Garb
Peasant to mid-class, I can suit you up for the Renaissance Faire! I use natural fabrics whenever possible, striving for authenticity and comfort at the same time.

Peasant to Mid-class bodices
My bodices include at least one layer of strong fashion fabric (brocade, upholstry, tapestry), an interlining of canvas or denim, and a lining of denim or twill. I use steel boning, up to 10 pieces per bodice, depending on support needs. My current pattern is of my own drafting through much trial and error, and each bodice is custom fit to it's owner.
