Renaissance Linen Blend Ruff Collar
A Hallmark of Renaissance Fashion
The ruff first appeared during the 16th century as a practical collar protecting the neckline of garments before evolving into an extravagant symbol of wealth and status. Originating in Spanish court fashion, it quickly spread across Europe. By the early 17th century, some ruffs had become so enormous that King Philip IV of Spain issued regulations in 1623 limiting their size.
An internal insulated wire helps the collar retain its distinctive circular shape and allows gentle reshaping after cleaning.
