Model Number 3: Green Girl



Model Number 3 was incredibly obliging, especially since she wasn't a medievalist or re-enactor or history buff and knew nothing about medieval clothes other than what she'd seen in movies... and we all know how that goes!

She braved the barbette-and-fillet (headpiece), was interested in the buttons and was a good sport when it came time to wimple and look a bit like a nun. happily, once she say the jewelled fillet that went with the outfit, she was won over. I was able to get a variety of great looks for her, my lovely "Green Girl." I also sent her a Manesse Codex image with a lady in the headwear and she was again surprised that she looked just like the picture and very accurate! She was less worried after that!

Photo editing is taking ages, but I was able to message her a few quick Snapseed edits which she loved and said her Mother will love very much!

More models tomorrow, and I feel that theming the colours was definitely the right thing to do!

Looks great. I'm also laughing a little that she needed to be convinced it went with the dress.

That is a very sweet picture.
