Anglo Saxon Men's Costume-example 03 - History in the Making

Saxon Costume, High Status Women, Saxon lady

Woman's Anglo Saxon dress (from the origional website:) This dress is entirely hand sewn. The underdress is linen, the overdress is woolen. The belt is tablet wowen in linen. Maybe it should not be wrapped twice around the waist, but I like it this way very much. The pouch is of wool, with an embroidered beast from the Bayeaux tapestry (woolen threads in natural colors and hibiscus).
