Women's Medieval Cotton Skirt 'Adventuress', Green

Sophisticated Design and Quality Material

This skirt is crafted from a strong and durable 100% natural cotton fabric in a dark green hue. Unlike synthetic materials, natural fibres are wonderfully breathable and help maintain a comfortable feel even on warm days, making the skirt ideal for summer events. The skirt is full, ankle-length and features a sturdy waistband to which the fabric is generously gathered, giving it volume and complete freedom of movement. The waistband is equipped with a drawstring, allowing you to perfectly adjust the skirt to your waist size. All seams are carefully finished, and the hem is double-folded for extended durability and resilience.

Versatility and How to Wear It

The 'Adventuress' skirt is incredibly versatile. You can use it as a petticoat or underskirt beneath other skirts or dresses to add volume, as an over-skirt, or wear it on its own. Pair it with a bodice, a corset, or a simple blouse. For a layered look, you can wear two skirts and stylishly tuck the outer one into your belt. Will you become a medieval merchant, an elven ranger, a steampunk traveller, or perhaps a Victorian librarian? The possibilities are endless!

A Glimpse into History

Separate skirts became a common part of women's attire in Europe, particularly from the Renaissance onwards, and their popularity has lasted into the modern era. In the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, skirts were often layered – petticoats added volume and shape to the more decorative outer dresses or skirts. For women of the lower classes or for work, a simple, robust skirt was often the main lower garment. Drawstrings at the waist were a common and practical way to fasten clothing before the widespread use of buttons or hooks, allowing for easy size adjustment.

Fun Fact

In the Middle Ages, the colour green was often associated with nature, hunting, and rural life. In folklore and later fantasy literature, characters dressed in green are often rangers, elves, dryads, or other beings connected to the forest. A sturdy cotton skirt in this colour perfectly accentuates the character of someone who is practical, independent, and close to nature.
