EDITORS COMMENTS
This image transports us back to the medieval era of 1425, showcasing a group of German ladies in their elegant attire. The women are dressed in various styles, each reflecting the fashion trends of the time. In the foreground, a lady wears a kirtle with a long train. The kirtle is a fitted garment with a wide, full skirt that trails behind her. The train is gathered and held up by an assistant, creating a dramatic effect. The kirtle is paired with a houppelande, a long, loose-fitting outer garment. The houppelande features funnel sleeves, which are wide at the shoulders and narrow at the wrists, allowing the loose folds to hang gracefully. Another lady in the background wears a short gown with a fitted bodice and a dagged mantle. The mantle is a large, draped cloak with a decorative edge, adding a touch of elegance to her outfit. She also wears a girdle or belt, which cinches her waist and accentuates her figure. A third lady completes her ensemble with a veil, adding a feminine touch to her outfit. The veil is draped over her head and covers her hair, completing the medieval look. The intricate details of their clothing, from the stitching to the draping, highlight the craftsmanship and artistry of the time. This photograph is a rare glimpse into the fashion of medieval Germany and offers a fascinating insight into the lives of these ladies from the past.
