But I was asked to join the court of Obidiah &amp; Ascelin, and her royal highness requested a festive, wintery 16th-century theme for their coronation, specifically with hats &amp; coats. How could I deny this honor? And besides, I&#8217;ve been wanting to make a zimarra &#8212; a loose, coat-like garment for Italian period dress &#8212; anyway, so I figured I could simply make one to go with my Italian gowns &#8230; perhaps even the 1530 dress, tho&#8217; that&#8217;d be blurring the lines of historical accuracy a bit in the silhouette. I have some gorgeous deep red, white, &amp; gold silk-cotton blend damask in The Stash which should be perfect for this, as well as a lot of gold trims. And maybe even faux fur.
