Making a medieval costume for summer? Last year I made a dress for a medieval night during summer, but I got really overheated. This year, I'm trying to figure out a way to make an acceptable costume that wouldn't be too upper-class for the period but would still be less stifling and crazy warm. Does anyone have any suggestions for alterations or anything? I used pattern 9891, variation C from Simplicity.

Does anyone know of the renaissance/medieval shop in Montreal's Old Port? I stumbled across it a couple of years ago before I lived in Montreal, and now I've gone back to Old Port to try and find it, but I can't. It might be more towards downtown than right in Old Port - I can't remember. As far as I can remember it had renaissance/medieval costumes and weapons, and I would really like to be able to find it again.... and I haven't been able to find it through the search engine.
How did the early mediaeval "unisex" costumes happen? At some point in early mediaeval Europe, women and men wore very similar clothes - they had robes where the only real difference was the position of the waist. Sorry i can't be more specific about that, but it may have been in the twelfth century. Given their focus on Christianity and the Bible and the strong prohibition on crossdressing in the Pentateuch, how did this situation arise? Wouldn't those Biblical commandments keep women's and men's clothes very different in style?

Medieval Costume ideas for a Renaissance Festival? This Sunday I will be attending a local renaissance festival with a few of my friends, and I am certainly excited about it. There are actors who refuse to leave character and myriads of activities to suit all tastes (all of course dealing with anything medieval). The only problem is that I do not have a costume. Medieval attire is not necessary, however, this year, I would like to dress the part. Can anyone think of a costume I can create on a very small budget (I am a college student and would prefer to spend my change at the fair itself and not on my attire for the day)? Or a costume I might be able to make out of existing commonplace pieces in my wardrobe? I'm not looking for anything extravagant, but any ideas?

What would a medieval "first son" wear? My 5th grade son has been assigned the role of "first son" for his medieval night at his school. What costume would her wear? When I look online it gets very confusing. I want him to look authentic, but I don't want to spend a fortune and I can only sew on a basic level... He said he is royalty; the equivalent of a prince. He is not in a play--it is more like a medieval museum where they talk about their life in character.

medieval costume help? I'm in a big medieval high-school play. All the ladies have to have hats or headdresses, and I don't want to have a ridiculously tall veiled hat or a pointy cardboard cone hat. The other option was to have a beaded cloche or beaded headdress that goes over the hair. I found a lot of nice headdresses on websites but i really need instructions on how to make one. If anyone could tell me how to make one that would be really great, or even just give a link to a website that has instructions on making one.

8th Grade Medieval Day Costume Ideas (Girl)? Ok, well in a couple of weeks our grade is having a medieval themed day where we have to dress up. Any ideas on what to go as? And also, a costume to go with it, preferably created from stuff I can find at home. Btw, I'm 14 and it's Spring, nearly Summer in Oz.
When you think of your costume do you also think of a comlimentary candy bucket to go with it? Like for my son's pirate costume I bought him a skull bucket, and for his samurai costume I made him a Japanese monster bucket, and for his medieval costume I made him a medieval woolen draw-string sack, and for his Bruce Lee costume I'm planning to make the severed head of Kareem from Game Of Death, and for his Star Trek costume I'm planning to make a bucket that looks like a tricorder, or for an Am. Indian costume a bucket shaped like the head of a buffalo or a least a leather pouch? Or do you just carry around any old free plastic sack, or the same plastic pumpkin as last year, or a pillow case?
