Courtier clothing is historical menswear featuring a long, decorated coat, knee breeches, and often a lace jabot under the collar. You will find courtier outfits for carnival here mainly for men, in sizes S to XXL, and a smaller selection for children, such as a king outfit for boys with a crown and chain. The coats come in red and dark blue with a gold-coloured scroll pattern, as well as black with silver-coloured decorative bands, so as a courtier, you will immediately stand out from a group dressed in medieval clothing.
Courtier coats with scroll patterns, floral designs or silver detailing
The courtier clothing here is distinguished mainly by the design of the coat.
- Coats with a gold-coloured scroll pattern are available in red and dark blue, and the blue ones come with the gold waistcoat and lace jabot already attached.
- A black background with a large rose gold floral and vine design looks dark and opulent; one coat even features leopard-print sleeves and fringed epaulettes.
- Damask-style prints can be seen on a blue and lilac waistcoat with gold buttons and on a green and yellow coat with turquoise sleeves and collar.
- Black coats with silver-coloured decorative bands, braids or vine prints are the more understated choice, sometimes featuring silver-coloured fringes on the shoulders.
- Lighter options include a cream-coloured model with shoe buckles or an outfit with white knee breeches and lace ruffles at the knees and cuffs.
If you are mainly looking for a marquess's gold-trimmed coat and knee breeches, you will find these versions together in the marquess costume.
Coat, knee breeches or jabot: what is included in your courtier costume?
A courtier costume is only complete with a coat, knee breeches and a jabot, and the sets differ precisely in these three pieces. Some outfits include a coat and knee breeches without a jabot, one model includes a coat and jabot without breeches, and the long black coats with a stand-up collar are worn over your own trousers. A wig, hat and walking stick are not included with any of the outfits, so you will need to purchase those separately. For men, you choose by standard clothing size (M is 48–50, XXL is 60–62), and for children, you choose by height rather than age.
A marquess's wife or composer to complement your courtier costume
If you are going out as a couple, your partner can dress in a marquess's wife costume so that you can enter together as a courtly couple. If you want to dress up as a composer with a white wig, the Mozart costume pairs well with the black coats with silver detailing.
