Smashing tones on the heavy fabric. If I'd commissioned these I'd be a happy boy indeed.  :)

Thanks guys...

This is from their Carlist range, CAT16.

Yes, they would be just fine for Napoleonics...I am sure they are fine up until today in some parts of Spain!!!

Certainly!

I'm going to get a pack for use in both Peninsular and 1820's Mexico games.

Mine won't be this well painted, though  lol

We don´t live in the middle ages, these dresses can only be seen at some festive events.
Good job especially with the clothes.

They would be just fine for the Spanish Main, too, methinks....  :D

Presumably they'd work up to fairly recent times in some of the more rural areas?  In the 1970s while in Ibiza I cam sure I remember seeing women dressed in this (or a similar way) while at market or working in the fields.

I think you're a little off, here:

The Carlist Wars in Spain were the last major European civil wars in which pretenders fought to establish their claim to a throne. Several times during the period from 1833 to 1876 the Carlists  — followers of Infante Carlos (later Carlos V) and his descendants — rallied to the cry of "God, Country, and King" and fought for the cause of Spanish tradition (Legitimism and Catholicism) against the liberalism, and later the republicanism, of the Spanish governments of the day.
