The Twelfth Century was an age of innovation and elegance in civilian dress. One such example was a new, elegant back-laced gown that replaced the bliaut over the second half of the 12th century, and was made popular throughout the courts of England and France by such famed ladies as Queen Eleanor and her daughter, the renowned Marie de France. These new, fitted gowns adopted a variety of both simple and dramatic sleeve shapes, and although they fell out of fashion in the 13th century, were forerunners to the fitted dresses that would reappear in the 14th. We have chosen a unique, beautiful design from the later decades of the 12th century for its combination of style and comfort. The long, fitted dress has narrow sleeves that flare out into dramatic, streaming cuffs that almost reach to the ground. Worn with a double-wrapped belt, this gown is the height of “High Medieval” fashion!
Based on contemporary artwork, and made in 100% Raw Silk, our pendant sleeved, back-laced gown is available in our new pallet of rich, earth tones with a contrasting sleeve lining. Four sizes and the historical back-laced closure allows for near perfect fit for most body types. This gown shows that nobility doesn’t just have to be stately, it can be sexy!
