Overdress "Ellette the Alien"
Embroidered sleeveless V-neck dress
Medieval overdress “Ellette the Alien”
Embroidered sleeveless V-neck dress with accents
Ellette’s days in the village were surrounded by quiet mystery. She always walked with purpose, whether gathering herbs in the ancient forest or rushing to the landlord’s castle. Her connection with this land was undeniable, so the villagers, though cautious, never questioned her. The healer’s daughter carried an air of magic: even her clothing became a subject of whispered conversations, its craftsmanship hinting at secrets only Ellette knew.
This floor-long sleeveless V-neck dress, part of the “Fireside Family” collection, is made of natural flax linen and adorned with delicate handmade embroidery. Its geometrical pattern combines smoothly with trims and accents on other clothes from the collection and allows for versatile layering. The colors of the cotton mouline thread used for double herringbone stitch and framing stitches at the upper part of the dress echo the hemp cords at the bottom hem. The shades of the principal linen, contrasting linen accents, embroidery threads, and hemp ropes unite into a magical color synergy. And even though the screen settings can influence your expectation of the actual dress color scheme, it still looks perfectly balanced and harmonious on any device.
The 100% natural linen we’ve used for this beautiful medieval-style overdress is soft, breathable, and stands the test of time in whichever climate you will be using it. Add this sleeveless dress over the chemise and tunic duo, and feel cozy even on damp and chilly early autumn nights. Or wear it over the fine linen chemise on hot summer days and stay cool while still looking perfectly period. The signature characteristic of medieval dresses by ArmStreet is that we love using as much fabric as it takes for the skirt width and floor length to turn the modest pattern into a flowing silhouette.
