Astrid Viking Diamond Twill Wool Dress – 80% Wool Medieval Gown

Embrace the world of Viking Age Scandinavia with the Astrid Viking Woolen Dress, a garment with modern comfort. Based on archaeological textile finds from the 9th–10th centuries, this dress shows simplicity of Norse women’s clothing.

Made from a wool blend (80% wool, 20% nylon),it helps in warmth and resilience. The diamond twill weave, very famous in Viking fabrics, adds a geometric texture that enhances both durability and drape. Historically, such weaves were valued for their strength and considered high-quality clothing.

The Astrid Dress has a front-slit neckline, long fitted sleeves, and a full-length flared skirt with side gores for movement and layering.

The deep blue shade shows the look of natural dyes historically achieved through indigo plants. When paired with a woolen cloak, apron dress (hangerok), or leather belt, this piece transforms into a period look.

Each Astrid Viking Dress is carefully handcrafted, subtle variations in color and texture may occur.
