Lady Hanna,
Leine and brat are appropriate terms, but without comparing the
comments on that site with what others have written, it is hard to
know from this. I will let those more familiar with clothing styles
give a review of what is on that site.
Here are a few files in the CLOTHING section of the Florilegium which
might be of use to this new lady.
cl-Ireland-msg (88K) 7/26/99 Medieval Irish clothing.
http://www.florilegium.org/files/CLOTHING/cl-Ireland-msg.html
cl-Scot-fem-art (14K) 7/ 2/96 Scottish women's clothing.
http://www.florilegium.org/files/CLOTHING/cl-Scot-fem-art.html
cl-Scotland-msg (114K) 10/31/01 Clothing of Scotland. folding of
kilts.
http://www.florilegium.org/files/CLOTHING/cl-Scotland-msg.html
This one might also have some links which would be helpful:
