Welcome to Myra's costume site, dedicated to explorations of female costume in Germany in the early Renaissance. When I started my forays into this period a couple of years ago, I found very few online resources for the early Renaissance in comparison to what is found on for the later periods during the 16th century. One reason for these pages was therefore partly to try to fill that gap and partly to take up the challenge of experimenting with costumes I had not so seen around in the historical re-enactment world, the period between the 15th century military companies and the later Swiss and Cranach-style Landsknecht fashion.

Includes contemporary descriptions of clothing, as well as a glossary of terms relating to civil, professional, ceremonial, ecclesiastical, and military costume.
