The partlet is cotton vetlveteen lined with the same fabric in which I lined the bodice of the dress (bright red quilting cotton). It makes a heck of a difference in cold weather, it's comfy and overall great.
Please ignore the wonky hanging of my brooch. This is what you get when you use a pendant as a brooch and pin it on with a safety pin I guess.
The pattern says "copyright 1987 Harriet Stetser", but I have no idea where my laurel purchased it. It was originally designed with a Medici (standing) collar, but as this was not really seen on partlets in this period, I left it out. My next dress might be later in which case I'll give the collar a try.
