Very nice work. Do you know about EXARC, the experimental archaeology group? exarc.net/ The people there might be interested in reading more about your recreations.

They have a page on FB too.

This is really cool ^_^ Hey, I've got an assignment in a class that asks me to represent Roman clothing, and I can't draw very well (working on it) let alone replicate the clothes this accurately. Would you mind terribly if I used this image in my poster? I'm sorry for asking, but it's kind of necessary.

Your replique is so lovely !!! I really love how the fabric is draped.
I made a saxon peplos, but it's not beautiful as yours. Can I ask you how long was your rectangle at the beginning ?

Thank you

I took the original measurements of the Huldremose peplos - at least almost: 260 cm perimeter, 168 height.

Oh, der ist sehr schön geworden! Was ist das für ein Stoff? Der fällt so schön...

Ich hab mittelschweres Leinen genommen. Eigentlich ist das nicht unbedingt der geeignetste Stoff, wie ich feststellen musste. Das Drapieren ist sehr aufwändig. Mit etwas dünnerem Wollstoff (wie im Original) wäre es sicherlich einfacher. Aber schön, dass es aussieht, als würde es schön fallen. Darauf kommt es zumindest nächste Woche erstmal drauf an

Ah, danke! Ich möchte mir auch einen machen, aber wie du sagst, war noch kein geeigneter Stoff beim Leinen dabei. Dann werde ich mich mal nach mittelschwer oder Wolle umsehen!
Viel Erfolg wünsch ich euch!
