The Player’s Doublet and Skirt Set

$550.00

In the play Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead, there is a mysterious character who leads the traveling actor’s troupe. He is called only “The Player”, and his doublet is to die for. The beautiful menswear in this movie influenced this piece, and it is modeled after the doublets of the early 17th century.

This one of a kind two piece set consists of a doublet and silk maxi skirt. Payment plans are available, send me a message with the contact form on the “about” page if you are interested.

The doublet is constructed with an interlining of cotton coutil and is heavily boned across the front and sides so it acts like a pair of stays in providing bust support and some waist reduction.

The silk skirt is lightweight with an elastic waistband. Wear it over leggings or another skirt in the winter for warmth, or on its own for a beautiful modern look in warmer weather. In the photos of the skirt being worn, it is worn over hip padding and another skirt for volume.

All Lineage Garments incorporate hand sewing and therefore have small variants unique to each piece.

Please read detailed sizing information below before purchasing.

Skirt: 100% silk, elastic waistband.

Care instructions: Doublet: spot clean only. I recommend wearing a washable layer underneath the doublet, as was done historically. This helps extend the life of your garment and keeps it cleaner. You may also consider sweat guards under the arms to prevent needing to launder the doublet. You can also use a spray of one part vodka to one part water to kill bacteria. Allow to fully air dry, preferably in the sun.

The silk skirt can be hand washed in cold water or dry-cleaned. Hang to dry. Both pieces may be ironed with steam as needed, the doublet from the inside only.
