Renaissance clothing is fancy dress from the era of courts and castles, recognisable by long dresses with wide sleeves, lace collars and gold-coloured decorative bands. Women have the widest choice here, men can choose a long coat or a suit with knee breeches, and for children, dresses and suits are available in body lengths from 116 to 164 cm. Some women's dresses have long, flowing sleeves and a headband with a gold border, a style also found in medieval clothing.
Dress, loose coat or complete suit: what Renaissance clothing are you looking for?
- A Renaissance dress for women often features lace bell sleeves, trumpet sleeves or puffed shoulders, and some styles have an open overskirt worn over a second skirt.
- Loose coats with a stand-up collar, silver- or gold-coloured trim and sometimes fringed epaulettes are available for women and men, and can be worn over your own trousers or skirt.
- Renaissance clothing for men is also available as a costume with a coat and knee breeches, with some suits complemented by a lace jabot or a vest.
- Children can choose from dresses with lace bell cuffs or with a petticoat and gold crown, and from a suit with a coat, knee breeches and jabot.
Single garment or complete set: what's in the box?
You can buy Renaissance clothing here as a single garment, as a two- to four-piece suit or as a dress with headwear. With the loose coats and most dresses, you receive only that single item, so you will need to arrange a wig, stockings and gloves separately. A few dresses come with a petticoat and crown or a headband in the same fabric, completing your look instantly. Women's styles range from XS to XXL and men's styles from S to XXL, and for a child you choose by body length, not by age.
A wig and a matching look for your Renaissance costume
The suits with a jabot do not include a wig, so a wig from the Baroque wig collection will complete your look in the same style. If you are going as a couple, pair a Renaissance dress with a men's suit from the Prince suits collection, or he can wear a Renaissance costume with a dress from the Princess dress collection.
