As the name suggests, this will be a website of projects undertaken by Isabel Maria del Aguila.
Isabel Maria's primary passion is late 16th Century Spanish gowns of the nobility, and she finds all manner of excuses to wear them (along with all the associated accoutrements). She is particularly fond of her black satin mongil trancado and white satin saya entera.

A member of the Order of the Laurel in the Society for Creative Anachronism (or SCA), Isabel Maria was recognised for her endeavours in the field of sartorial arts.
As you might expect, this website primarily reflects those interests: clothing, accessories and jewellery. However, expect forays into camp furniture, heraldic display and easy to cook food etc. (Occasional side-trips into various types of dance and nineteenth century costuming might also appear from time to time.)

Isabel Maria resides in the Barony of Southron Gaard, which lies within the bounds of the Kingdom of Lochac.
Over the years, Isabel Maria has stewarded numerous events and held a variety of offices for both the Barony and former College of Reannag Fhara. At the moment, she is the Chronicler for the Barony. Isabel Maria was honoured to previously serve as Baroness of Southron Gaard, alongside Oswyn Carolus.
A member of the long standing household, Hous Amberherthe, Isabel Maria was apprenticed to Meistern Christian Baier until her elevation.
