This is my newest addition to my medieval wardrobe. It is an undergarment and I am going to have a green gown over it. This dress is made of linen, special fittet and hand sewn by myself, though the sleeves aren’t perfect. I have used approx half a year on and off it to get it done. The sleeve is fittet closely to my arm and is buttoned with 12 handmade buttons on each sleeve. The front is closed with pointed threads woven through eyelets in the dress.
The headpiece is also completely hand sewn, with green embroidery. It has taken about 3 days to make without the embroidery and about 3-4 more to do the embroidery.
I’m quite happy with the outcome, though I’m going the fit a new dress to myself soon.
