EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 12th century print depicts the elegant attire of Norman-English ladies during the High Middle Ages. The image showcases the fusion of Norman and English influences that characterized the fashion of the time. The ladies are dressed in flowing gowns, their silhouettes accentuated by the cinched waists and full skirts. The Norman influence is evident in the high-necked tunics, often worn with a surcoat or overdress, and the long, flowing veils that cover the hair. The English influence is seen in the use of vibrant colors and intricate embroidery, as well as the addition of fur trimmings and mantles. The ladies' garments are adorned with delicate lace and embroidery, adding an air of sophistication and elegance. The use of fur trimmings and mantles, often made from expensive furs like sable or mink, signified wealth and status. The ladies' shoes are simple and practical, with pointed toes and laces that secured them to the feet. The hairstyles of the Norman-English ladies were also intricate and time-consuming, with elaborate braids and woven patterns. The long veils, often made of linen or wool, were worn to cover the hair and protect it from the elements. This print provides a glimpse into the fashion and style of the 12th century, a time of cultural exchange and innovation. The fusion of Norman and English influences created a unique and beautiful aesthetic, one that continues to inspire fashion designers and historians alike.
