I hadn't actually gotten as far as the outer fabric yet. I'd have to make the undergarments first, which are all white.

Hmmmm. I have some "kumquat" linen I'd intended to use for a florentine tourney dress. Might use the cherry red linen for sleeves.

I have a silk/wool herringbone that needs to be dyed so it's not really a color yet. I had been planning to use it for a court florentine, or possibly a houppelande.

I have the royal-ish blue wool and the med-dark lavender wool that as as yet unassigned that were probably going to be either elizabethan or houppelande. Or a gothic fitted dress, if I ever get up the nerve to try. Germans/Italians didn't seem to use much in those colors.

If I did Venetian or German I'd probably have to go shopping. Horrors!

I know I have more up there in my bins, I've just forgotten. I might have some cotton velvet in a light green.
