EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time and immerse yourself in the grandeur of the 15th century with this stunningly detailed print of a man's costume. The image showcases a range of fashionable elements popular during this era, making it an invaluable resource for historians, costume designers, and anyone with an interest in medieval fashion. At the heart of the ensemble is a houppelande, a long, flowing garment with hanging sleeves that reached the ground. The sleeves, adorned with elaborate fur cuffs, were often worn outside the main garment, creating a dramatic effect. A pouch was attached to the belt, which was worn at the waist, adding both functionality and visual interest. Atop the man's head sits a plumed fur hat, known as a capotain or a cracow hat. This impressive headpiece was typically worn over an undercap, which provided additional warmth and protection. The high buskins, or boots, reached up to the man's thighs, while the cote-hardie, a fitted jacket, was worn underneath the houppelande. The man's feet are clad in piked shoes, also known as poulaines or crakowes. These shoes were characterized by their pointed toes and high heels, adding an elegant touch to the overall appearance. This print, dating back to the 15th century, offers a captivating glimpse into the fashion trends of the time. It is a testament to the intricacy and beauty of medieval clothing, which continues to inspire and captivate us today.
