Renaissance Fashion

The Renaissance period, when the foundations of the art of tailoring and cutting emerged, represents a cultural period in European history that began with the end of the Middle Ages. The term Renaissance means "rebirth" and during this period, Ancient Greek-Roman cultures were revived and developments in the fields of literature, science and art were also experienced.

Leonardo da Vinci's drawings and anatomical studies and the drawing of the proportions of the human figure known as the Vitruvian Man summarize the humanist philosophy of the period.

During the Renaissance, the silhouettes that mask the body lines have revealed the rank of the wearer.
 
Luxurious textiles such as colorful silk satin, expensive velvet and brocade from the Italian cities of Genoa, Lucca, Venice and Florence were important to the wealthy bourgeoisie.
Italy came to the fore in the production of gold yarn fabric and velvet in this period.
 

With the love of nature and the value given to pastoral ideals in the Elizabethan era, animal and plant textures came to the fore in the clothes; The clothes were decorated with bird, insect and floral embroidery. Patterns such as flowers and leaves were created by embroidery.

During this period, piles have become heavier; Precious stones such as diamonds, rubies and emeralds were frequently used, and the silhouette was complemented by earrings, tiaras and necklaces.

This period, which is very important historically, has found its place in fashion; The details and elements of the period fashion influenced today's designers and the silhouettes and fabrics of the 15th and 16th centuries came to the fore again.
