In 2002 we took some photos of the people and work on display at Laurel Prize.
Helene du Puy.
Helene's beautiful pleated German aprons.
Some of this armour was made by Lord Kitan of St Florians (apprenticed to Leofric), and some by Sir Innigo Missaglia, from Ildhafn. The arms and legs were definitely made by Sir Innigo; I had a good conversation about the articulation with him. (It's smooth as, by the way.)
Elaborate German dress - photos and creator.
