Getting Dressed as a Medieval Queen

Medieval stories and fairy-tales show us long gowns, big sleeves, and tall conical hats for princesses. But how accurate is this? What did medieval women really wear? Burgundy was considered one of the most fashionable places in Europe in the 14th Century, and many medieval women in the 1500s wore the extravagant Burgundian gown. It is likely that some of the queens and noble women who stayed at the Tower of London dressed in this style. In this video, historical interpreters go through all the stages of dressing for medieval women, both for wealthy and poorer working women, to create an outfit fit for a queen at the Tower of London.
