The Items
Doublets
The Randwulf's Doublet (See Pattern) is a simplified
elizabethan-style doublet with a pointed front and a straight
waistband. Most have grommeted, lace-up fronts.
Surcotes
My surcotes are long sleeveless doublets (think Robin Hood) with
wing epaulets and lace-up fronts.
I build them using the Randwulf's Quarterly Tunic
pattern.
In reality, pirates wore whatever other ordinary seamen of their
day would wear, including what they could steal. Hollywood has
directed our imaginations to the carribbean buccaneers of the
1600s and 1700s. Here are some of my forays into this archetypical
fantasy image:
Cote 070614 - Grey
Herringbone with red pinstripes. Roll-back lapels, exaggerated
cuffs. Coat body is lined with the same pinstripe material. I
added bronze buttons with black piping and frogging after the
posed picture was taken. Simple body is based on the Randwulf's Quarterly
Tunic pattern. Fits 42-46 chest $130
Cote 100524 - Red pinwale corduroy with brass finish double buttons and black frogs, pleated back. Two patch pockets with flaps. Mandarin collar. Roll-back cuffs. 48 chest, 45 inches long. $120.
Cote 100526 - Red pinwale corduroy with black grommets, roll back cuffs, mandarin collar, pleated back Fits 42-46 chest. $60Bodices
My bodices have scooped necklines, epauleted shoulders, curved
fitting seams at the bust. The lace-up front makes them somewhat
forgiving for size. They are designed to be comfortable ladies'
vests without boning or underpinnings. Most are based on the Randwulf's Beer Maiden
Bodice pattern.
