“Townswoman” Medieval Costume
Medieval tunic with surco and hat
The Middle Ages from the modern sight are the time of Knights and Kings, Fair Ladies and Minstrels, Tournaments and Crusades. But it is often forgotten that in the Middle Ages the first trade cities, craft guilds and bourgeoisie appeared in Europe. There in the desolate feudal time the romance of the free towns with their fairs, fellowships and municipality has arised. That garb is the fantasy on the subject of everyday clothing for the medieval townswoman.
Light semi-fit thin flax tunic, red broad and very long upper dress (surco) and flax houve of the fancy hat shape agregate into amazing common but stylish costume. It would come handy to go for shopping or to visit neighbour.

Dear Armstreet, Is it possible to have this made with the 'bloody thorn' trim? I see it is available on some dresses but not on others. Thank you!
Hello, this trim is out of stock, sorry. You may see it on some dresses that are left in stock.
Dear Armstreet, Please forgive me - you're probably so tired of this question, but is it possible to have the "Townswoman" costume with express shipping to Australia by July 12th ?
Dear Jennifer, yes it is possible with express shipping if the order is placed today. Kindy leave a comment to your order that it should be delivered by July 12.
Hello...love the saleswoman dress...but would like another three
Hello, I'd like to purchase the surcoat only but cannot finding it listed separately on the site. How do I do that?
Dear Sarah, please contact our support team for personal invoice for the surcoat only.
Hey, I love this dress. But I would like to hear if I could get the surcoat i wool?
Hi Selena, yes it is possible. Please contact our support team for the price.
Very interested in ordering a dress, but I MUST have it for a wedding on Sept 3rd. Is there a rush possibility or could it be finished if I order today?
Thank you for choosing our dress for such an event! If you order the dress today, it should be manufactured by August 18 approximately. Also we can offer you UPS express shipping which takes up to 5 business days to deliver.
Hi Armstreet, Is it possible to purchase only the underdress? What would be the costs? Many thanks!
Yes, the underdress separately costs $115 + $24 (shipping). Please send your measurements to contact@armstreet.com, and we'll send an invoice for the order to your PayPal account.
Hi, I wanted to know how long this dress would be made for someone who is 66.5" tall, and does the hat/houve have the liripipe or not, and if it does can it be made without? Thank you for your help.
Manufacturing of this costume takes 23-27 days regardless of the size.
The houve from this set has no liripipe (tail).
How much is the outfit without the houve? And do you have any other trims for the outfit?
The set without houve costs $15 less, to order the set without houve, please email us at contact@armstreet.com.
Available trims are shown below; also can be made with the Archeress trim for $30 extra.You can specify preferred trim color in a comment to your order.
Want to buy complete "Townswoman" outfit. Can it be made to NOT drag on the ground? Too muddy outside. I could add my front (or back) length to my outseam (to floor instead of ankle) and you could use that measurement for length.
No problem, please specify the desired length of the product in a comment to your order.
is this set available shorter? I don't know if I would want it full length or not, or weather it would look weird if it were just a bit below the knee... what do you think?
Sorry, this set cannot be made knee length or just below the knee.
Is there blue trim available? If not is it possible to put the blue trim as in “Sunshine Janet”? Thank you!
Available trims are shown below; also can be made with blue Sunshine Janet trim for $30 extra.
Hi, Could you please confirm that Medieval Dress Tunic and Surco “Townswoman” does not have any buttons/solid bits on the front side? I play hurdy gurdy (at larp events) and a lot of costumes have buttons or something metal/plastic/decorations on the lower front (waist-height), that makes scratch-marks on my beloved gurdy... So before I order I just want to make sure. I do love the dress and from the pictures it looks like it will be safe but I already have some costumes that are unsuitable for music-making. I noticed some buttons on the back of the lower sleeve, I doubt if the ones on my left arm will be in contact with the gurdy. Would it be a big problem to move the buttons to the side of the sleeve? If that is not possible that would not be a huge problem, if it is only a few buttons I could replace them with fabric-covered buttons. The little metal rings with laces is not an option for the sleeves, as rings scrath even more than buttons. :) Thank you very much for your answer, and I hope to be able to order soon! kind regards, Diona de Jager (from the Netherlands)
The dress has four buttons on each sleeve. We can move them to the side for free, simply add a comment to your order. Also we can replace them with fabric-covered buttons for $15 extra if needed.
Welcome!
I'm wondering what exactly are the colors in the trim for the "towns woman" dress?
Trims are the same as on Medieval Long Flax Linen Lady Tunic, you can specify preferred trim color in a comment to your order.
Does the tunic can be purchased seperately? How much does it cost if so?
Yes, the tunic separately costs $115 + $24 (shipping). Please send your measurements to contact@armstreet.com, and we'll send an invoice for the order to your PayPal account.
Hi my apologies for this I am still interested in the Hood from the Townswoman outfit. I cannot remember what you said the price would be including postage. I reside in Queensland Australia. I would really like it is the natural flax colour. Regards Julieanne Luck
The houve separately can be made for $39 + $12 (shipping).
If this works for you, we can send an invoice for the hood directly to your PayPal email.
Hello, i would like to order the surcoat "Townswoman" seperately. Is it available in Size 12 and can i pay by paypal?

This costume can be made to order only, we don't have it in stock, sorry.
Hello there, would i be able to buy this without the trim? thank you
Sure, just add this comment to your order.
Would you make the surcoat in Flax Brown without the Ethnic Trim? If possible, what would be the cost. I really love the shape on your piece and plan to add rope up the side.

2 questions 1. measurements full lenght - is it shoulder to toes or head to toe 2. can it be ordered any other colour and not those specified on this page

2. All available colors are shown in the order form above.
