Medieval Irish Costumes- Unique Stunning Looks This Halloween
With the grown popularity in Medieval themed Halloween costumes, like the interest in Irish history, placing the two together with a mix of mythology and historical facts can produce some stunning Halloween costume ideas for Men, Women and Children. With the garments worn during this era, finding amazing costumes should be easy.
Ireland has a rich cultural history that the Medieval era is often over looked. Everywhere in Europe, Medieval fashion was different in design and style, but the two main styles really would have been " The Rich and The Poor." Through Medieval times in Ireland, the clothing worn comprised of two main items, the Leine and The Brat.
The Leine
The Leine was a smock like garment, could be either sleeveless or with fitted sleeves that fell lightly above the ankles. The neckline, cuffs and hemline usually had embroidered designs, and the arms, neck and chest had a looser fit which would allow workers during a hot day to slip the garment to their waste. The longer the length, the higher your social status was seen.
The Brat
The Brat was a rectangular cloak mostly made from wool and was worn like a shawl. A pin would be used to fasten it at the neck or shoulder. It was a large and roomy garment that when moved about could be normally dyed the one color with a border of another color and like the Leine the length dictated a higher social status.
The material used to make garments changed with social class. With most of the population been of lower class, usually used wool and linen while silk and satin, having to be imported, could only be afforded by the rich.
At the time, most of the Irish clothing were brightly colored, patterned or striped. While these were the clothes normally associated with the people of the country, the other clothing around the country would also have been of Irish soldiers and English Knights.
During this time, the Irish Brehon law still ruled the countryside, Irish Kings paraded around in their greatest fashion at the time, and monks wandered the countryside it their brown colored robes and hoods.
All this clothing of this Irish era makes way for some high quality unique Halloween and fancy dress party ideas. With stunning dresses and garments for women, Irish Gaelic King and warrior costumes for Men but especially for little boys, and Monks and Druid eerie costumes, gives us a fantastic choice and excellent options to get the ancient yet stunning look of the Irish Celts or Medieval people, and stand out this Halloween in a truly unique way.
