Conclusion: it is very unlikely that these kinds of clothes were drawn outside of the 1400-1430 timeframe. Given the VM's carbon dating, we can probably narrow that down to 1410-1430. A window of 20 years based on fashion is wonderfully small already.

I must note that at that time, I (nor, I think, the other participants in the thread?) was not aware of the specialist statement quoted by Rene, so these can be seen as independent confirmations. I am not entirely sure on which grounds the 1410's can be excluded though.
