Robes and Houppelandes – The Elegance of Medieval Historical Costume

Robes and houppelandes are among the most distinctive elements of medieval fashion. The robe was a long, loose-fitting garment worn by both women and men, forming the basis of many historical reenactments. Its design evolved over the centuries – from the simple forms of the 13th century to the richly pleated and decorated versions of the Late Middle Ages.

The houppelande, popular in the 14th and 15th centuries, symbolized luxury and social status. It was characterized by wide sleeves, a generous cut, and deep pleats, often trimmed with fur or embellishments. Today, these garments inspire historical reenactment enthusiasts, reflecting the extraordinary artistry and elegance of medieval fashion.
