Not in fandom, though I know that the SCA has some armorers who do custom armor.
That makes sense, given what little I know of the SCA (and that's really very little).
If you want to do Valdemarian Herald uniforms, just order yourself a whole lot of white cotton or cotton/polyester blend. The basic cut of a herald's whites is very simple, as I recall.
Not what I'd choose for the finished product, but excellent for playing around. Yes, simple... and never one hundred percent described, not that I found. I'd fiddle around a lot creating just the right pattern. Might actually use some of the cover art in this case.
For dress uniforms that are more closely fitted, it gets trickier.
Like your Count Piotr Vorkosigan. I believe I've seen photos. Now THAT's an achievement! :-)
