EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the 15th century and immerse yourself in the richly textured world of medieval fashion as depicted in this evocative print from Mary Evans Prints Online. The intricately detailed costumes showcase the distinctive styles worn by both men and women during this era. At the forefront are the men, clad in short doublets or jerkins, hose, and tall crowned hats. The doublets, often made of wool, are fitted at the waist and shoulders, with short sleeves and a low neckline. Hose, which functioned as both trousers and leggings, are held up by garters and feature decorative designs. The tall, conical hats, known as cauls or ruffs, add a regal touch to their attire. The women, on the other hand, don hood-like headdresses, long-sleeved gowns, and pouches suspended from their belts. The hoods, adorned with liripipes - long, flowing fabric tassels - were a common accessory that provided both fashion and function, shielding the wearer's head from the elements. The gowns, made of heavy fabrics like wool or velvet, are full-length and feature wide, bell-shaped sleeves. Additional details, such as tippets - long, narrow scarves worn around the neck - and baskets, add authenticity to the scene. This print offers a captivating glimpse into the sartorial splendor of the 15th century, transporting us to a time when fashion was an art form and self-expression was a luxury.
