The Archeress Flax linen dress, corset and chemise set

Closeout!

Archeress Dress:
The tunic's slim-fit bodice emphasizes the bust and waist. The wide skirt has four additional gussets and drapes with soft pleats. The skirt is hemmed with trim, as are the sleeves and neckline. The trim also decorates the lacing fastening at the front of the gown. The dress is approximately 58" long.

Archeress Chemise:
The chemise is made of thin, unbleached natural linen. It can be worn under most medieval dresses or on its own. With a classic gothic silhouette (typical of European feminine fashion in the XIII-XIV centuries), it emphasizes the bust and waist while softly draping over the hips. Long and wide sleeves can be adjusted to any length up to the biceps with the help of a drawstring casing.

Archeress Corset:
This natural suede bodice corset has been designed especially for this costume. Its design is based on patterns and decorations of European Renaissance corsets and on later-period German and French bodices. This corset has easily recognizable sloped shoulder lines and a stand-up half-collar. The waist is tightly laced, while the bust remains almost free. Front lacing gives the necessary flexibility and fine fit. Decorative rolled edges laced along the bottom and arm-slits complete the look.

Important note about corset's measurements and lacing:

For your corset use waist circumference as the basic measurement. If your actual waist size is in between two sizes, choose the largest one. Also choose a larger size for a more comfortable fit if you have a significant difference of waist circumference and under-bust circumference.

The corset compresses your waist; reducing waist circumference up to 2-4 inches. Laced slit is intentionally V-shaped for aesthetic reasons.

Lace your corset from top to bottom for the best look.
