Ok, so I've finished my lovely lined blue shirt recently. I need something to go over it. I've a square cloak, but I was hoping for something a little more practical, for indoor events.
So, I initially though a Caftan, but it seems despite the possibility of caftan buttons being found in Dunmore they are a) expensive to make b) possibly only a pendant anyway, c) not very west-viking. So, anyone recommend a nice 10thC garment for over a shirt ? Split coat, trimmed in sable ?
