Abstract

To create a versatile winter travel wardrobe that is comfortable, easily maintained, beautiful and can be worn indoors and outdoors and from day to evening requiring minimal added items. The inspiration comes from the eighteenth-century informal “brunswick,” a three-quarter length long-sleeved hooded jacket worn with a matching petticoat.1 To increase versatility, each item is reversible (black or navy) and the ensemble is layered into four essential components: skirt, bodice, sleeved bolero and collared vest with detachable hood.

Keywords: Travel, history, Adaptable, Reversible.
