ANST - costuming for the summer

[Elspeth de Forbeys]

My Lord Husband and I wear early Irish wear made out
of 100% cotton for day wear in the summer. For women
that means a full skirt with an embroidered tunic. For
men plaid braes(pants) with an embroidered shirt. In
period this would have been lightweight linen (Leine
where the name comes from is Celtic for shirt )
