  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Exploring Lago Di Braies Guide
    Exploring Lago di Braies Guide COPYRIGHT © 2019. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. Step-by-Step Trekking around the Lago di Braies loop trail takes roughly 1.5 to 2 hours. The lake is always visible from the trail so your time may be longer if you're a nature photography enthusiast. NOTE: The loop trail is easy to hike with minimal ascent. The first leg is smooth enough for a stroller, but you cannot complete the entire loop with one. COPYRIGHT © 2018. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. If arriving by car, you can park practically by the entrance to the lake. The P1 parking lot is near the front of Hotel Lake Braies on the northern shore of the lake. The cost is €5 to park. NOTE: If you do not want to pay for parking, you can park for free in the hamlet of St. Vito / San Vito, which is situated less than 2 miles ( 3 km) from Lago di Braies. The walk from the village center will take you approximately 45 minutes. Most of this walk is uphill. COPYRIGHT © 2018. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. A map located outside the hotel is worth reviewing to get a better sense for the hike around Lago di Braies. We recommend beginning your hiking adventure by venturing to the right once you're on the northern bank. Follow the Seeweg / Giro del Lago signposts. Photo opp: Several points on the trail along the western side of the lake allow you to wander to the shore. Find a boulder to sit on and watch any boats rowing about.

  • Is a Set of Guidelines on the Historical Costume of Duke Siemovit’S Mazowiecka Banner
    The following "Red Booklet" is a set of guidelines on the historical costume of Duke Siemovit’s Mazowiecka Banner. All of the information contained therein relate to what is required internally in our camp, and they are the choice of iconography and sources from the vast information about costumes from the period of our interest – i.e. 1390-1410. All kinds of questions and uncertainties related to the discrepancies between the guidelines of the Siemovit Banner and other Grunwald banners – should be cleared up within own camp, with persons involved in the control of the historical costume and with their costumography choices. Commander of the Siemovit’s Banner Małgorzta Rekosz-Piekarska, Red Booklet II Introduction to the reconstruction of the costume Reconstructing dresses of the bygone era we must rely on historical sources. The most reliable, are of course clothes preserved to our days, which we can, which we can freely examine and take to pieces. Unfortunately, the fabric does not stand up well to the passage of time, therefore from the late Middle Ages a little survived to our times. We therefore need to supplement our knowledge both with iconography as well as written sources. In the art of the turn of the 14th and 15th century there are plenty of depictions, which may become useful in reconstruction of the mediaeval clothing. Unfortunately there also is a lot of confusion and traps. Firstly, all depictions mainly show the higher society (founders and their entourage). Secondly the artists of this period often simplified the look of the clothing; there also was a custom of borrowing whole compositions or types of presentations from other artists (famous medieval patterns).

  • Renaissance Stockings
    Keepyng yer Legges Warme: Women’s Renaissance Hose and stockings. An article by Lady Katerina da Brescia Hose, stockings, netherstockings, upperstockings and gamasshes: What is in a name? From the beginning of Queen Elizabeth’s reign, the term hose was generally used for women’s stockings. Queen Elizabeth’s Wardrobe Unlock’d (p.207) quotes that: only gradually, by the 1600’s, did hose get used to describe men’s stockings. Men’s stockings were often referred to as netherstocks. Women’s stockings, or hose were generally to the knee or just above the knee and were footed, as seen in Queen Elizabeth’s Wardrobe Unlock’d and A History of Hand Knitting and Textiles and Clothing. They were made of cloth cut on the bias to give stretch, to make them fitted and usually to show off the man’s leg! This is mentioned in both Queen Elizabeth’s Wardrobe Unlock’d and A History of Hand Knitting and Textiles and Clothing. Netherstocks were the stocking, usually longer than knee length, worn by men. They were pulled up over the end of the trunkhose, sometimes tired to the trunks and secured by a garter. In Queen Elizabeth’s Wardrobe Unlock’d, gamasshes, or upperstockings, is conjectured to be the name given to footless tights that came into fashion in the late 1590’s. These were mostly made of silk (not known if knitted or bias cut cloth) with a pile, possibly to keep the legs warm in winter. (p 210) In most of my references, there is mention of the stockings being secured by garters to stop them falling.

By Bradley Moore University of Arkansas Bachelor of Arts in Art History, 2007 August 2012 University of Arkansas ABSTRACT This paper will explore the connections of clothing and identity in the sixteenth century. The fit and construction of clothing can be directly related to how a person is perceived, or indeed, how one perceives one’s self. Henry VIII (1491-1547) of England will be compared and contrasted with Matthäus Schwarz (1496-1574), a commoner from Augsburg, Germany. Tudor will represent how identity can be created for others, particularly through legislation and courtly life; while Schwarz’ own words will assist in the exploration of the identity of the individual.
