Price is for the basic garment. Decoration - braid, bands, slashes embriodery, pearls and jewels will be extra.
Style varies with the year and with status. The best advice is to find a contemporary picture portraying the character you wish to copy and we can discuss which garments you need.

Modern fabrics, fastenings and cheap decoration, machine stitching visible.

Wool and linen, machined where it does not show, hand stitched where it does. Prices are based on fabrics I source and will vary if a customer provides their own or asks for something special. As for reenactors but completely hand stitched. Half the price. Under 5 feet tall: 3/4 the price. Over 6" tall: add 1/4 the price.
