Matilda medieval chemise, underdress, green

Product description

This loose-fitting chemise was worn in the Middle Ages as an underdress during the colder months, or as a light overdress in the summer. It is based on an archaeological textile discovery from Pskov, Russia, attributed to a Viking dress from the 10th century.

The chemise is made of cotton and has side panels (gores) that give the garment a generous width. The neck and sleeves have drawstrings with which you can tie the dress to own size adjusts.

Combine this chemise with a hat and a apron or overdress for a complete costume as a maid or simple woman from the early Middle Ages.
