Description: Perfect for Ren fairs, LARP, SCA, & reenactment/historical events. For consideration is a handmade, brocade, Medieval woman's courtly surcoat/overdress. Surcoats dresses were the common worn in Medieval times over an underdress or chemise. They were everything from dressy to casual. Lengths varied & this one is full length. Made for the royal court, the high-quality brocade part is a somewhat heavy fabric with a gorgeous design. This design is centered & matched at the side seams. French seamed for fray prevention. The light-weight bodice is a dark beigy gray w/ a soft ivory drape falling from the shoulders in back. The neckline is adorned w/ a heavy scalloped lace & a satin tucked ribbon trims the waistline. The armholes are edged in a fancy ivory gimp. All of these trims are sewn on by hand for a quality look. Inside seams are French seamed for no fraying & longevity of wear. Brocade comes part way up the front bodice for support. Front hem is cut longer at center & a bit shorter where you need to walk. Bottom hem is machine rolled & turned again hand hemmed. Loose fit of surcoats allows for a range of sizing. This is a basic small to large in sizing. Please see the measurement for a good fit, most importantly the hip measurement. Shown on size small setting. Let me know if you have any questions or need any other measurements or pictures. Thank you for viewing my site. Measurements: Bust: open sizing w/ about 11" panel; Waist: open; Hips: 47" max around at opening; Length: 58.5" at front center, 54.5 under the shoulders, & 60" back center; Sweep: 107" around; Neck opening: 11" across; Armholes: open down for about 22.5" from shoulders.Pay Pal only.
