Description
A long sleeved red linen kirtle! Yay! This is early 15th century, though it really works for most late 14th - early 15th c stuff. I actually made this with the intention of using it solely as an underdress for two future gown projects. However, I have already worn it alone once. In this photo, I am also wearing velvet tippets and a linen veil.You can see more on my costume site: [link]

You look so elegant and pretty in that kirtle! It looks really good worn alone. The red is beautiful ^^

Thank you so much! Haha, I try to be accurate! Sometimes there are liberties I have to take because I live in warm weather in southern California, but it's all about knowing where to deviate (like single layer linen instead of bulky warm stuff!) and where to stay true (like the whole look and the patterning and finishing).

I'm in California myself, though northern -- and I understand. Nonetheless, your works are beautiful and are always in good taste.

Looking good!
I have got to make tippets someday... They add that last point of fashionness to the costume...
