Fitting a curved-front-seam cotte — 29

Sheree poses here as Procis .

Another source for this sleeve treatment is a tapestry made in Alsace, currently in the Germanisches Nationalmuseum, Nuremburg, circa 1400. Various women are wearing gowns with a flare at the wrist under their fancier overgowns. The book I found it in is The Medieval Art of Love by Michael Camille, p. 126-7.
