in the 15th century Italian style. The doublet and hose are similar to contemporary styles in the rest of Europe. One of the distinctively Italian garments of the time is the giornea, a sideless tabard-like garment usually shown with rows of carefully arranged pleats.  There is some pictorial evidence of the pleats being held in place by tacking them to tapes at intervals down the length of the pleats.
