EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Nigel Lorringe, a man dressed in the fashion of the late 14th century during the reign of Richard II. The image is taken from "British Costume during 19 Centuries" by Mrs Charles H Ashdown, published in London in 1910. Nigel Lorringe stands tall wearing a houppelande, a voluminous robe that reaches over his head. The robe is adorned with a bold pattern, adding an element of grandeur to his attire. His long pointed shoes, known as poulaines, are visible beneath the flowing fabric. To complete his medieval ensemble, Nigel carries an anelace or short sword suspended by a baldrick or sword belt. This weapon serves as both protection and symbolizes his status. The photo provides us with a glimpse into the clothing and accessories worn during this period in England's history. It showcases the intricate details and craftsmanship put into creating such garments. Emily Jessie Ashdown captured this moment through her lens while Nigel Lorringe posed for her camera. Together they bring to life the essence of 14th-century fashion. This image transports us back to an era filled with knights, castles, and chivalry. It reminds us of our rich heritage and how fashion has evolved throughout centuries.
