Modeled after several portraits of women from the cities of Muenster and Braunchweig and particularly of Mathildis von Munchausen. Made from custom over-dyed linen (saddened from a very electic pink) with a woolen goller lined in linen and a black linen kirtle. The skirt was hand pleated using steam and gravity.
