The natural method of distinguishing a costume during a reenactment event is choosing a printed fabric. How does it work? First of all, you can use it in a simple dress or cotte and be sure it will look like an expensive garment. What is more, even one part of clothing covered in pattern will attract the eye.

What’s on the fabric?

Linen with a German pattern has a large, interesting printing. An animal theme is combined with a floral theme. The main decoration of a pattern are birds similar to pheasants and resting cervids (in our opinion, they are does). The whole is complemented by stems and fruits, reminiscent of artichokes cut in half and pomegranates.

Will I sew a gambeson or a civil clothing from this textile?

All our printed fabrics can be used for making a civil garment as well as a gambeson. We recommend mixing patterned fabric with some other textile to create a unique combination. Sometimes even one decorative element (like torso section, gussets or sleeves) of a gambeson, a cotte or a dress will make the whole project outstanding.

We are aware about the importance of historical compatibility of your outfit. This pattern is dated back to the 15th century and it represents the fashion of late-medieval Europe.
