Dressing Italian Working Classes in the 16th Century

Its here! The long awaited for full reveal of my historical Belle cosplay has arrived on YouTube!. In this video you will see me get dressed in layers of working class clothing from the late 16th century. I drew a lot of inspiration from Campi's market women paintings and Cesare Vecellio's Habiti Antichi et Moderni which was released as The Clothing of the Renaissance World and translated by Margaret F. Rosenthal and Ann Rosland Jones. You will notice between the getting dressed and final scene I have taken off my sleeves, changed partlets, and changed camicia (shifts). Because this is my time period I've built up a wardrobe and enjoyed experimenting with different looks for Belle with the items I completed and others already existing in my historical wardrobe. Thank you for getting ready with me! I hope you enjoy watching me get dressed as my favorite Disney princess, Belle, from Beauty and the Beast. This cosplay has been quite a long time in the making and I'm so excited to share it with you. My make up is modern stuff you can get at Ulta or Target. I tried to keep the look exceptionally natural and have not gone into a make up tutorial here. If you would like a 16th century look with modern make up video please let me know in the comments. My hair is detailed in my bow hairstyle video: https://youtu.be/c9BLvNdpXlk
