History and Drafting of Hose By: Adelheid Holtzhauer History and Drafting of Hose By: Adelheid Holtzhauer Introduction Leg coverings of some sort have been worn throughout history by both men and women. For the purposes of this class, the hose we will be looking at are fitted, closed footed and made of woven fabric. There are many garments called Hose and Hosen worn throughout history. Extant examples have been found dating back to the 2nd century such as the footed hose found a Martres-de- Veyre. Image 1: Womens woollen twill hose excavated at Martres-de-Veyre Although there are many different garments that could be referred to as hose, in this class we will be focusing on "Single Hose" and "Attached Hose". Single hose cover one leg and can vary in length/height. Attached hose are essentially tight fitted trews. Over the course of time, single hose went from knee length and gartered with trim, to full fitted "pants" to thigh high and attached with to a belt at the waist, to detached and gartered under the knee to the full legging style common in the late 161h century. Image 2 shows a pair of attached hose which are carbon dated to 1355 AD and were found in the Damendorf Bog.

Moving forward further into the 14th century, hose and braies become a common lower body garment. Image 5: The Antichrist tortures the faithful- Hortus Deliciarum fol. 242r Image 6: c 1410-c 1414, The manuscript, known as 'The Book of the Queen', f.115v The hose had evolved from a pair of trews to a garment independent from the braies (drawers/underware). As you can see from image 6, they were tied into the braies at the waistband. By the 16th century men’s hose were worn a variety of ways including: attached to a pair of upper hose, assembled as one piece like leggings, or worn gartered around the knee.

Photo by Pertonilla of London Other terms that refer to hose in the SCA period are: Chausses (French) Hosen (plural of Hose) Cannions (English - Elizabethan) A brief note on knitted hose: There is a surge in historical knitting research and information out there. We have some fabulous resources right here in Avacal for those looking to knit stockings. Knit stockings have existed throughout history as far back as Ancient Egypt and have changed production from single needle (naalbinding) to 2+ needles (modern knitting) over time. Knit socks are period! For all periods! If you’d like more information or resources, please let me know and I can connect you with the right people. Tips and Tricks I am terrible at patterning hose from measurements. There are resources out there for it, but I find draping much easier and dynamic. We will go over draping today Always cut your hose on the bias. This is the only way to get the stretch needed to wear them comfortably without damaging the fabric. Period appropriate colour choices: o Natural o Tawny o Scarlet o Black (sheep or dyed) There is some evidence of other colours, but the above are common to all eras. Period appropriate fabric choices: o Wool, tabby or twill o Linen o Rarely Silk Your woolen hose can be lined making them much less scratchy and VERY warm! Perfect for Avacal's winters. When hand finishing, make sure your back seams are loose or you will split the thread or tear the fabric. Some hose have the foot seam finished on the outside. This seam is hidden in shoes most of the time and having the seam on the outside there is less to bother the foot. Outside seams are also easier to repair and replace worn sections on the foot and heel. A real difference we see in hose through the years is foot assembly. I find most people want little to no seams under the foot for comfort. So that will be one of the 4 foot styles we will go over. Resources Books Mikhalia, Nina & Malcolm-Davies, Jane.

Combining the two seemed like a good idea, but I didn’t want Special Orders 20 to go with just pants, shirts, etc. I scoured the internet for medieval period clothing, and narrowed down a list of items that were common across a wide range of times and places throughout Europe during the Middle Ages. Now, I did come Glossary 22 across some interesting clothing items that fell outside that range or geography, and a few are included here. None of the items presented here are gender specific.

  • Privacy, Power, and Humiliation at Work: Re-Examining Appearance
    PRIVACY, POWER, AND HUMILIATION AT WORK: RE-EXAMINING APPEARANCE REGULATION AS AN INVASION OF PRIVACY Catherine L. Fisk* It is only shallow people who do not judge by appearances. The true mystery of the world is the visible, not the invisible.1 For several decades, civil libertarians on the bench, at the bar, and in the academy have argued that privacy – whether as a constitutional or statutory right or as protected by the common law – should be understood as two separate concepts: freedom from intrusion and protection for autonomy. As many have observed, they are not unrelated: both are about limiting exertions of government or institutional power for the sake of protecting the boundary between the self and society and, ultimately, the vitality of both. The relationship between privacy and autonomy is quite plain in the workplace. We experience some workplace rules that deny privacy or autonomy as invasions of the self. Perhaps nowhere is the invasion more keenly felt than when an employer demands, under penalty of forfeiting one’s livelihood, that one dress or alter one’s physical appearance in a way that one finds offensive, degrading, inappropriate, or alien. Clothes and appearance are constitutive of how we see and feel about ourselves and how we construct ourselves for the rest of the world to see. Most people give careful * Professor of Law, Duke University School of Law. Thanks to Erwin Chemerinsky, Mitu Gulati, and Erica Williamson for conversations that deepened my thinking on this topic. Williamson’s research for her own work on this topic made my paper possible; her conversations with me made it fun.

  • Medieval Clothes
    Clothes Clothes Men’s linen braies Men’s linen braies — (or Breeches) were the innermost layer of clothing for men, long loose underpants made from linen. They were worn under and filled in the gap between single leg hose in the 13th and 14th centuries. As hose became fuller, braies got shorter and smaller. How do we know about linen braies? There are no surviving examples of braies as linen rots away too quickly. These replicas are “best guesses” worked out from C13th illuminated manuscript evidence. There are many illustrations of men wearing braies in medieval manuscripts, including the Luttrell Psalter. Peasants working in the fields seem to have worn braies without leg hose. Clothes Men’s linen lined woollen single leg hose Men’s linen lined woollen single leg hose — hose began as simple foot coverings and extended upwards covering more of the leg. During 13th and much of the 14th century hose were single-legged garments, and men sometimes wore different colours on each leg. Hose fasten directly to the waistband (breech girdle) of the braies. How do we know about woollen single leg hose? There are many illustrations of men wearing leg hose in medieval manuscripts, including the Luttrell Psalter. Clothes Women’s woollen leg hose Women’s woollen leg hose — women’s hose were knee-length socks cut from woven woollen cloth. They were cut on the bias to give as much movement as possible, were often quite loose and held up by garters tied just below the knee. Rich women may have had garters made from expensive cloth, possibly embroidered, with buckles, and poor women would have used plain twill cloth or braid.

  • The Details of English Fashions of the Sixteenth Century: Men's Clothing
    The Details of English Fashions of the Sixteenth Century: Men’s Clothing Examined by Decade by Margaret Roe Also published online at http://www.margaretroedesigns.com/fashions.html © 2010 1 Overview 1500s Shirts, cuffs and collars The shirt of the 1500s was full in the body, gathered into the neckline, sometimes with a narrow collar and sometimes into a scoop-neckline. The sleeves are unseen, but are probably either gathered into a small cuff or simply hemmed. Blackwork is not yet seen at the edges of men's shirts. Breeches Breeches of this decade continued to be the joined hose and codpiece of the fifteenth century. Doublets and jerkins Both doublets and jerkins are worn at this time. The doublet usually had a narrow standing collar, no more than 1" high, whereas the jerkin had a low, round neckline. Both had long skirts, extending to the knees, and both were simplify trimmed. Sleeves Sleeves are often difficult to see under the overgown, but appear to be of two common styles: either narrow but loose sleeves, or narrow to just above the elbow and full to the shoulder, possibly stuffed or padded to maintain a full shape. Sleeves usually matched the doublet or jerkin and were probably sewn into it. Over garments Finally, overgowns are seen in most portraits. These gowns fall either to mid-calf or to the ankles. They most often have very full, long sleeves, but occasionally, the sleeves are only elbow-length or are turned back over the elbows. The collar is turned back around the neck to reveal a different colored lining, which was sometimes fur.
