Historical Reference
Thanks to the cosprop.co.uk concept sketches, we know for certain that the vast majority of the costumes in Ever After were inspired by historical paintings, e.g., Danielle's Princess Gown, Danielle's Blue Library Gown, Jacqueline's Green Brocade Gown. We've been able to identify many of the paintings seen in these concept sketches, but since we don't have sketches for each costume, we have to speculate for some.
Picture #1, left has a similar sleeve treatment, though it's very difficult to know for sure due to the lack of detailed pictures of this costume. The padded crescent headdress that Rodmilla wears were called balzos. For more information on this style, check out these awesome study pages [ here] and [ here].
