From the Crown Prints
In June of 1520, Henry VIII of England and Francis I of France met near Calais to display the magnificence of their courts and increase the bond of friendship between their two kingdoms. It didn't work, but the splendor of the pavilions and clothes, banquets, tournaments, music and games became legendary, and the event became known as the Field of Cloth of Gold.
Being deeply in favor of anything involving great clothes, the Right Noble Company of Clothiers is pleased to announce a Black Rose Ball to be held on October 16, 2010, with the theme of The Field of Cloth of Gold.
Early 16th century dress encouraged, but not required. Cloth of gold or reasonable facsimile encouraged, but not required. There will be plenty of LIVE music, dancing, good things to eat, and (this is where you come in!) people in fabulous dress to admire.
In addition, the Ball will include a Timeline Fashion Show, Hall Costume Awards, a Sotelty Contest, and gaming. There will be a dance practice in the afternoon, snacks and refreshments during the day and light supper repast at the Ball proper.
