Welcome to the Strawberries and Cream store front.  Soon you will be able to select fabrics, colors, and styles of different renassiance clothing that I will create for you!  For now, check out my auctions on ebay under JubileeL.   Or Email me about prices and style selection. 
My favorite styles are the Italian Renaissance dress and the Irish dress.  The italian is perfect for those who don't want boning but want to have a period style costume.  It tends to be high waisted (almost babydoll style) and has a very full skirt.  This style was made popular in modern times by the movie "Ever After".

The "Irish dress" is accepted by most SCA and Renaissance type re-enactment groups, even though it isn't necessarily period.  It's basically a open front bodice, lightly boned, with a skirt attached that opens in the front.  I love them because they look great and are easy to take on and off.  Unlike most costume of the period, you don't need help!
