Description
And finally, proof that I occasionally finish garb.

An attempt at a late 14th century garb, of which I've done parts on and off for... years?

Blue wool overdress with embroidery for which I have no reference whatsoever - I'm quite sure it's very non-period, but I was bored? - unlined except for the fabric protecting the backside of the embroidery.

Blue fitted under-dress in wool/synthetic-something fabric, laced in the back and with sleeves buttoned from the elbow. Lined sleeves, because of buttons. The non-period trim around the neckline does not show so much here, yay for headdress.

Headdress in white linen, one square and one rectangular piece and fastened with pins. I bought proper pins in Visby last year, but put them Somewhere Safe and couldn't find them. Ideally, it takes five or six pins to fasten the thing (of which at least two always show). I used seven, I think, and found one of them in my hair when I came home.
