Our Reproductions
The era of Baroque fashion is as extravagant as full of taste, and every country in Europe portrayed its very own interpretation of style. These variations have been realised by us with great attention to detail, setting high standards in terms of quality and materials.

The doublet is made of black velvet and is decorated by approx. 60 velvet buttons, satin ribbons and hand-stiched ornaments. The ruff and sleeves consist of silk organza and vintage lace.
We used heavy silk satin for the trousers, and attached silk ribbons to it. As ist was popular in those times, the trousers are tied to the doublet and the ends of the laces form one more decorative detail..
Also the shirt was made of fine silk.

As to be seen on the original picture, it was manufactured of petrol blue velvet and silk taffeta, and is embroidered with silver braids.
As it was destined for a young girl then, it is also worn by a 5-year old today.
All small details have been respected in our reproduction: the dress is combined with a heart-shaped charm as well as a golden order sash. For our version, an antique gold braid with pure gold metal threads has been used. Naturally we have paid attention to the silk rosette and the asymmetrical ribbons.
Worn by little, neat Amber, the Infantin is given new life again....
