Beautiful 100% Linen Fabric

Made from 100% linen, this Renaissance Shirt has the natural texture and lightweight feel that make linen such a popular choice for historical clothing.

Linen comes from the flax plant, a natural fibre plant traditionally grown for its strong, lightweight fibres. These fibres are woven to create the breathable and durable linen fabric used in clothing.

It is naturally breathable, lightweight and comfortable, making it suitable for fairs, festivals, costumes and events where the garment needs to be worn for several hours.

The straight-cut body keeps the design simple, allowing the detailed neckline and sleeves to become the main features of the garment.

Ruffled Neckline with Embroidered Detail

The standout feature is the beautifully gathered ruffled neckline, finished with contrasting black embroidery.

The front opens into a V-shaped neckline, while two decorative cords run through the opening. The cords are finished with shiny tinsel details, adding a subtle decorative sparkle and allowing the neckline to be adjusted and tied.

The mix of white linen, black embroidery and metallic accents gives the shirt a refined period-inspired look.
