My best friend Aubrey and I go to the Renaissance Faire almost every year (except not last year... *tear tear*). She and I have shared the same love of dress-up ever since third grade when we first met. Thankfully, our dress-up has evolved from tacky ready-made '80's tube dresses and bad hair to period clothing and Lucille Ball hairstyles (you might see those later).
These are some basic peasant gowns I made for us. Aubrey's consists of a chemise, a skirt (natural
linen cotton dyed yellow), and a bodice. Mine is loosely based off of an Irish gown (except I didn't wear a leine underneath), with a regular chemise, a skirt (dyed olive green), and a bodice with an attached skirt.
On the way to the RenFaire, Aubrey unfortunately lost her navy green snood (hair net-type thing i'm wearing). We never found it!
With Don Juan and Miguel! These guys were hilarious. And great at snapping whips!
Tevas? Totally historically accurate!
I look goofy but look at our matching trims!
