3 dresses for the Wife of the King: Viking Age women's Scandinavian costume.

The historical reconstruction movement is gaining momentum. The early Middle Ages and the Viking Age are some of the most popular destinations. Numerous festivals in Russia and abroad, many with a permit for costume and weapons, pose questions to the participants, motivate them for high-quality costumes and equipment ... How can a person who has come into the reconstruction movement to navigate in the vast flow of information? What sources to study, what to strive for? What to look for when designing and making your personal suit? This video is just a brief overview of the textile World of the Viking Age: general provisions, types of fabrics and seams are common for men's and women's suits. I talked about the experience of sewing one particular women's suit, which is a compilation based on several famous finds of textiles of that time. Perhaps, to an experienced person in this matter, the video will seem superficial, and to a person far from reconstruction, on the contrary, too specific and detailed. I was guided by the real demand that I receive from living people at festivals, including from participants who have recently come in the reconstruction movement. These are the questions: what were the fabrics, what dyes, what patterns, what are the seams, what threads for sewing, how to decorate a suit, how many layers of clothing were worn, how to make a harmonious aesthetics kit? .....
