Chemises
Every great outfit starts with a good base. Keep your historic ensemble authentic down to its innermost layer with a womens medieval chemise from Your Dressmaker. These essential undergarments make the perfect base for any historic look. Our chemises are made out of comfortable and breathable fabrics, such as cotton or rayon, so they are ideal for wearing under more elaborate period garments. Choose a full length, wide sleeve chemise to wear under medieval gowns, or combine a shorter blouse chemise with a full historic skirt. Throughout history, women across all classes wore chemises as a preferred underlayer, so we carry a wide variety of historic underdresses and blouses to suit any need, ranging from Norse and Celtic chemises to specialized garments like our Italian Renaissance style chemises. Your Dressmaker offers historic chemises in a broad selection of sleeve and neck styles, from ruffled sleeves and high collars to versatile and adjustable lace up necks, so you are sure to find a chemise that will work as the underlayer of any look, no matter your occasion. Our medieval chemises are must-haves for any historic outfit, so dont go to your next medieval reenactment, LARP event, or Renaissance festival without one!
