Child's clothes

This child's dress was exhibited at the Hermitage "Juwels of the Tsar" exhibition. It dates from late 17th - early 18th century. The design is from Italy or Germany and the material is silk, silver and silver-gilt thread.  Oh,  I can imagine to wear this as a child and make a pirourette....

And for a Romanov boy this Tartar, Kaukasic jacket made of silk and velvet with pearls.
Linking to "Our World Tuesday"

  4. If it has such a wow! factor after all these years, it must have been something in its own time.
