New Designs Coming Soon !

Click here for previews!

Our gowns are all based on historical authentic 14th century patterns. The cutting and style of the gowns are traditional medieval, and therefore not the slightest like the medieval fantasy style! The gowns feature a tight fitted bodice and a full skirt with or without a train. They are all laced down the back in high society medieval style! The gowns are NOT boned, since boned bodices didn't appear until the 16th century.Included in the price are the belt, the pouch bag and a breathable & sturdy fabric gown cover.Our policy is to use only natural materials like silk and acetate. We do not use synthetic fibres! The silk fabrics are all hand-loomed (hand-woven) Dupion from India. This is not strictly a genuine medieval fabric (but a lot more genuine than polyester will ever be). It has a rustic feel to it, beautiful shine and the luxurious sound that only silk makes. The gowns are all fully lined using acetate lining, also made from natural fibres.Hems, neckline, belt and beading are all hand finished. The lacing holes in the back are embroidered,(we do not use metal eyelets). The lacing cords are also handmade.The Dupion Silk comes in 80 diffrent shades.The gown will be made to measure using your own measurements!The gowns are lovingly finished in our Derbyshire studio, close to the Peak District and the Nine Ladies stone circle, and that's where we got the name!
