THE VIRGIN QUEEN / ROBIN HOOD / IVANHOE / ELIZABETH & ESSEX STYLE
WE SPECIALIZE IN OLDER VINTAGE MOVIE WARDROBE AND HAVE THOUSANDS OF REAL MOVIE WORN ITEMS IN CURRENT INVENTORY!
This is a magnificent Medieval / Renaissance Men's Doublet we are offering for auction. It is done in the style worn in movies such as 'THE ADVENTURES OF ROBIN HOOD' 'IVANHOE' 'LADY GODIVA OF COVENTRY' 'THE VIRGIN QUEEN' 'THE TAMING OF THE SHREW' "THE PRIVATE LIVES OF ELIZABETH AND ESSEX" "THE PRIVATE LIFE OF HENRY XVIII" "MARY QUEEN OF SCOTS" and many many others.
This fabulous doublet is done in a two tone suede. It is done in the style that was worn with either the short balloon trunks or a pair of tights. The right half is done in a reddish-brown suede and the left is done in a gold tan suede. The center front has darker red-brown suede in a jagged / off center design. This darker piece is also padded at the chest area. It has a peplum style bottom with a solid front panel and three rear panels. The short sleeves are really fabulous showing the quality of work in these older movie costumes. The lower edge of the sleeve is pleated with a horizontal row above the pleats then a paneled upper sleeve with both the inside layer and the panels done in suede. Each sleeve also has a cap sleeve at the top which is sewn down. There is a padded suede covered 'rope' around each armhole done in the red-brown suede. The sleeves are not sewn to the body at the underarms - this made for more freedom of movement - especially when Swordfighting! It also has an ivory collar that had been added. The way it is attached it can be worn showing or not. The doublet is lined in both the gold and the reddish brown in cotton. It fastens with a metal zipper. This fabulous doublet has a Western Costume Company label, stamp and numbered label. It is in beautiful condition for its age!
The doublet is a size 36.
