17th century extand garnments

[wataya]

I was browsing the Museo de Traje Website (for something else) and found some extant 17th century garnments that might be interesting for all of you, crazy, doing that Charles II mistresses thing.

It's in the virtual visit :

I couldn't find them in the catalogue, but I don't speak spanish, so my improvisations could have been wrong.

EDIt : here. I found one of them !

Jubón

25.5 cm
Barroco
1670 (ca)-1695
Donación del Vizconde de Güell, 1934
INVENTARIO: MT001019

Presenta las características estructurales de los jubones femeninos españoles de la segunda mitad del siglo XVII. Los retratos femeninos de la época, concretamente los de la reina María Luisa de Orleans realizados por el pintor de cámara Carreño de Miranda, nos muestran este tipo de jubón genuinamente español.

Translation:

Bodice

Bodice of silk in two colors: black and su color (I've no idea what that means. Su is the third-person possessive.) With a wide, straight neckline and pronounced "peaks" in the front. It's decorated with the stitching technique of cut floral motifs applied with blue silk thread (OR appliqués in blue silk cloth; I'm not sure what all the prepositions match up with). It closes in the back with eyelets.

25.5 cm
Baroque
circa 1670-95
Donated by the Viscount de Güell, 1934
Inventory: MT001019

It presents the structural characteristics of Spanish women's bodices of the second half of the 17th century. Female portraits of the period, concretely (specifically?) those of Queen María Luisa de Orleans painted by Carreño de Miranda, show us that these bodices are genuinely Spanish.

"Jubón" is used to mean both women's and men's upper body garments -- bodices, doublets, etc.

The historical clothing is under Indumentaria Histórica (http://museodeltraje.mcu.es/index.jsp?id=45&ruta=4,17).

Here's what the intro to that says:

The Museum conserves limited but significant pieces of the 16th and 17th centuries, among these a woman's bodice/corset of the end of the 16th century. The 18th-century collection has excellent examples of men's clothing, like the wide and rich collection of chupas (no idea what that is) and waistcoats, as well as the collection of women's cassocks and authentic pieces (I think.) The 19th century has a more limited number of objects, but the diverse styles of the period are represented. Pay special attention to the names of outstanding modistes/designers, who in the future will allow special cataloguing to show the important work they are doing.

The number of objects in this collection approaches 2500.
