My topic is Fashion, more specifically Fashion from the Mid 16th century up to the mid 17th century. I have found a lot of good information of major aspects of fashion during these times. There's two websites in particular that I want to share.
One is a blog that has an abundant amount of portraits from the 16th century. You will definitely be seeing some of these pictures in my presentation but there are a lot that you can go through on your own. The detail of these garments is stunning and the pictures are fairly large to explore it all.Here it is: http://jeannedepompadour.blogspot.com/2012/06/english-portraits-1570-1630-george.html
The other website is from Word Press and I meant to post it for Halloween but it still seems appropriate. It compares the accuracy of a typical witch costume many little girls wear for Halloween to garments of the 17th century and 18th century. From the hat down to the shoes and even talks about color. I found it pretty interesting, hope you guys do too. Here ya go:
