Thank you so much for finding and sharing this! What an excellent project! This is the first time I've come across you channel and I will for sure watch through everything you have now.
To my knowledge the earliest stays are the Neuburg stays you have in this video. Then there is the Queen Elizabeth 1's effigy stays from 1603. Maybe archaeology will find something earlier one day. The dress turned out great. 🎉
Such a lovely gown! IIRC the movie costumes were inspired by the 15th c. Renaissance Italian gamurra gowns like the Angela Clayton pattern (eta: the Clayton pattern is apparently early 16th c. and boned, but the silhouette is still the same), and the bodices were stiffened by things like buckram with possibly but not necessarily some boning next to eyelets (e.g. the gamurra), much like in Tudor England - fully boned bodies/stays were the next step in the fashion evolution maybe a century or so later, so your version is spot on!
I just did a search and found a picture that said "1560-62 “Pair of Bodys” found in the Prague Castle". There is very little info on it in English. Maybe there is more info in Czech or German. But I don't speak either.

That's so great to hear, welcome to my fun little corner of the internet!
Grabbed my tea. Cant wait to watch. You never disappoint!😁 Love the intro and little historic discussion ...now to enjoy🎉
Aw thank you so much! 😊
Had my tea on tap. Dog sleeping at my feet. Notepad on standby and....go! Was not disappointed. Well done you!
Thank you so much!
It looks WONDERFUL!! Totally recognizable and iconic. Brava!!
The gown came out wonderfully and you looked lovely in it. Ever After is my favorite movie version of the Cinderella story.
Thank you so much! It's definitely my favourite version of Cinderella too!
Oh that dress is very cute🥰

That will be an exciting day indeed, I’d love to see an early find!
@@HalflingSeamstress Me too. 😃
So excited to watch this
I've never seen this movie but you created a beautiful gown! Great job!! 🧡💙
You should definitely watch it - it's a fantastic version of Cinderella, the costumes are stunning, and there are some brilliant lines!
Such a lovely gown!

Feed the algorithms
The under bodice is very reminiscent of Tudor era kirtles, which are actually the precursor to pairs of bodies/stays.
That's definitely the closest options I found during research - all the patterns using historical Tudor kirtles are pretty expensive, sadly.
That came out great! Why a shorter skirt for everyday wear? I wear ankle-to-floor length skirts every day!
Very true, ankle length skirts are awesome 🤩 I’m kicking around a calf length, but knowing me it’ll end up being ankle length after all 😂

Beautiful but looks like a lot of work! 🩷 Your instructions are clear and visuals good.
Thank you, it definitely was a lot of work, but well worth it :)
