Description
Mid-1400's English Front-Lacing Kirtle.
100% linen.
French seams throughout.
Hand-worked seams along neck, front opening, and inside sleeve.
Hand-worked eyelets.
Completed with the help of Diana Roberta.
In the photos it is laced with a shoelace, solely because I do not at the moment have period-appropriate lacing.

I'm still very early in the process of learning about medieval garb, so I am not entirely certain of the accuracy regarding year and culture for this style of gown, but is my best guess based on my research so far.
