Renaissance Faire & Medieval Costumes for Women

Renaissance Clothing for WomenBuy medieval dresses and Renaissance gowns that are perfect for ye olde Renaissance fairs, Renaissance-themed weddings, Christmas revels, and Halloween celebrations. Check out these beautifully designed and historically accurate medieval costumes.

This Renaissance costume for women is one of the highest quality medieval costumes for women you will find for the price. It’s perfect for Maid Marian or one of Queen Elizabeth’s handmaidens at a Renaissance fair and is full of unique details that will set you apart. This costume could even work for your next Shakespeare in the park performance.

The sleeves are attached to the leather-style corset, so you don’t have to worry about them staying in place whether you’re dancing around the maypole or mingling at a Halloween party. The corset design includes a delicate floral pattern in gold braid and a flattering flair at the waist, as well as dainty ruffles along the neckline. The adjustable black lacing in back ensures a comfortable but attractive fit.

The rich gold sash is edged in fringe and attached to the striped, metallic jewel-toned skirt, which is raspberry and green. There is also a metallic drape in a soft antique gold color which is part of the skirt. The drape has a fluttery edge and will rustle enticingly when you walk. The headpiece is also included and is perfectly coordinated, with a plush raspberry circlet wrapped in gold and white grosgrain ribbon which will trail down your back. The headpiece will work with any hairstyle or wig and the ribbons make it easy to pin in place with bobby pins. You can also curl the ribbon for a flirtier look.

Brigadoon Renaissance Festival CostumeGet ready to inspire bards and have knights fighting for your hand in this lovely Renaissance dress. This high quality costume will draw adoration from lords and ladies alike. Composed of a white peasant shirt, brown lace-up vest, black skirt, and red overskirt, this is the crown jewel of Renaissance dresses. A fringed handbag completes the ensemble.

Several accents add to this costume’s appeal. Lace at the collar and hem offers a feminine touch. Crinoline sewn into the bottom ruffle adds volume to the skirt, giving it a more authentic look. The bodice of the vest laces in three different areas, ensuring a comfortable and form-flattering fit. The red overskirt is held up with buttons to show the black skirt underneath. For those multi-day Renaissance fairs, ladies can find more variety by going without the red overskirt, wearing only the black skirt.

The costume tends to run on the large size — especially the sleeves — so purchasers may want to order a size smaller than they normally would. Elastic or ribbon can be used to tie the sleeves near the elbows to prevent them from hanging too low. Laces in the bodice can be replaced with ribbons for an even more feminine appeal. The bodice is reinforced with foam inserts.

You can consider pairing this costume with lace-up boots or ankle boots and dark hose. Add woolen shawl to keep you cozy in cooler weather.

Irish Lass Renaissance Festival CostumeThe classic Celtic style of the Irish Renaissance clothing has been recreated in the Irish Lass costume. This Renaissance Faire costume is sleeveless and low cut to reveal a small amount of cleavage. Wear a medieval chemise (sold separately) under it to complete the Renaissance look.

This Renaissance costume features a 100% cotton lace-up bodice with boning that’s designed to accentuate your curves. The laces can be tightened for a flattering, snug fit that is true to its era. The bottom portion of the dress opens in the front to show off a chemise, old separately, worn under the dress for a classic renaissance look. You can wear a beautiful gathered skirt under the dress for a splash of color in the front.
