It wasn't intended as body armour, but there was apparently quite a lot of it sewn into the clothes and cushions. But the execution was also just a mess. It was poorly planned, some of the would-be executioners balked at shooting women. Some were drunk. And they mostly stood in each others way..

Also, shooting people with pistols at close range. Not as effective as you'd think, low-muzzle velocity means the bullets tend to be less effective at point-blank range.
