13th Century Fashion: A Young Woman and Boy in Period Dress This evocative image from the 13th century transports us back in time to an era of knights, chainmail, and elegant attire. The photograph features a young woman dressed in the fashion of the period, wearing her long, flowing hair loose and adorned with intricate braids. Her outfit consists of a pink kirtle, a fitted underdress, and a short green super-tunic, which is worn over the kirtle. The super-tunic, with its square neckline, is cinched at the waist with a girdle, accentuating her slender figure. The young boy in the photograph is also dressed in the fashion of the time. He wears a short super-tunic, similar to the woman's, but his is made of a darker fabric. His tunic is also adorned with a girdle, and he wears stockings and shoes with a distinctive bar design. The woman's attire is reminiscent of the elegant and feminine fashions popular during the 13th century in Europe. The pink color of her kirtle and the green of her super-tunic are both vibrant and eye-catching, reflecting the rich colors used during this period. The intricate details of her braids and the delicate embroidery on her clothing add to the overall effect of this image. The boy's outfit, on the other hand, reflects the practical and functional nature of children's clothing during this time. The girdle would have helped to keep his tunic in place, while the stockings and shoes would have protected his feet. The boy's outfit also hints at the presence of a knight or armored warrior in the family, as the bar design on his shoes is similar to that found on knightly footwear. Overall, this photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the fashion of the 13th century, showcasing the elegant and practical clothing worn by both women and children during this time. The intricate details and rich colors of their outfits serve as a reminder of the beauty and craftsmanship of period dress.
