"On these..., who had the bodies of women, nature bestowed the souls of men"

Saxo Grammaticus (c. XII century)

Viking Costume “Ingrid the Hearthkeeper”

Viking dress and apron female outfit

Making this costume we tried to accentuate the beauty of the female figure, as much as viking clothing allows it with its free and floating cut.

Tunic. Traditional T-shape linen tunic decorated with contrasting trim, exclusive braid and dyed hemp cord. Tunic is quite spacious at biceps and narrowed to wrist, sleeves make it possible to be engaged in any daily chores. Wide skirt reaches the ankle and does not "sweep" the floor, does not limit the step and emphasizes feminine silhouette.

So does the apron. An apron is a signature Viking's women garment. Viking's apron is a sleeveless overdress worn with a pair of oval brooches. We used general idea of Hedeby harbour finding reconstruction and Shelagh Lewins illustrations but slightly improved the pattern making it a bit more complicated in favor of better look and fit.

We paid special attention to decorations and trims. The neck and the sleeves of the tunic are trimmed with a contrasting linen fabric and narrow trim with traditional Scandinavian ornament. Bottoms of both tunic and apron are also decorated with trim, specially designed for this costume, contrasting fabrics and dyed jute cord.

All these details and accents will make your character expressive and unique and will make you feel a dozen centuries younger.

Please note, that fibulas are not included.

  • Hilary 06 of March 2023:

    Hello, Is this price for both the underdress and apron?

    ArmStreet Team:

    Yes, it is the price for the costume. 

  • Lauren 12 of October 2021:

    Can the sleeves be changed? I was hoping for t-shirt length sleeves with some long bell silk attachments. Similar to the Water Flowers Wedding dress?

    ArmStreet Team:

    The sleeves on this tunic cannot be altered, unfortunately. 

  • Kyra 08 of July 2021:

    Hi how long does this take to be made

However, if you need it by some specific time, we recommend to select express shipping and leave a comment to your order with the deadline. 

  • Ayrcyia 30 of October 2019:

    Are these the only colors available for the aprons?

    ArmStreet team:

    Hi Ayrcyia! You may check all available colors for the apron here Apron “Ingrid the Hearthkeeper”


  • Jennifer 23 of October 2019:

    Hello, I really love this entire outfit. Does the beaded necklace come with the costume or can I purchase it separately? I didn’t see it in the jewelry section.

    ArmStreet team:

    Hi Jennifer! The viking beads/necklace doesn't come with the costume, it was made specially for the photo shoot and not available for purchase, unfortunately. 


  • norah 28 of August 2019:

    Absolutely love this combo! Fabric is wonderful, they are really not too heavy when worn together. I got the blue dress and the green apron. My only complaint is that the green appears a bright kelly green in photos but is much darker in reality.

  • Lauren 17 of August 2019:

    What currency are the prices on your website in? I am interested in buying the "Ingrid the Hearthkeeper" tunic and apron set, but would like to know what the price will be in CAD. Thanks!

    ArmStreet Team:

    Dear Lauren, all prices are in USD.

  • Bri 14 of August 2019:

  • Celeste 19 of July 2019:

    My fiancé and I are having a Viking inspired wedding next summer. Although we are going for as authentic as we can, we would like a modern twist to it as well. We will be doing a handfasting, have Viking Horns, Roasting a Pig, etc.... My question is really about a wedding dress. I am looking for something that is a little more dressed up/fancier than the traditional linen dress. I do like Costume “Ingrid the Hearthkeeper” but I am curious to know if you have anything else that would work for a more flattering look? Do you guys do any custom work at all? And possibly something that will not be too hot as it will be in the middle of June.

    ArmStreet Team:

    Dear Celeste, kindly contact our support team with the dress you would like us to make so we could confirm we can make it. 

  • Celeste 19 of July 2019:

    Oh and I also forgot to ask if I would be able to use other colors instead of the options that you have listed, based off the list that is linked in the below comments?

    ArmStreet Team:

    Hi Celeste, yes it is possible. 

  • Jordan 07 of July 2019:

    Is it possible to have the sleeves made 2/3 length, and stop just below the elbow instead of going all the way to the wrist?

    ArmStreet Team:

    Dear Jordan, unfortunately, it is not possible for this tunic, sorry. 

  • Haley Schaffer 28 of June 2019:

    Is it at all possible to get the apron dress is a red color?

    ArmStreet Team:

    Dear Haley, yes it is possible. Please simply leave this request in the comment to your order. 

  • Lise 22 of June 2019:

    Hi. If I order this in a pre-made size, and get the express shipping, will this arrive in Norway before August 10th?

    ArmStreet Team:

    Hi Lise, yes standard shipping time to Norway is 4-5 weeks. Express shipping takes 8 days. 

  • Inger Lise 05 of June 2019:

    Hi. How would you describe the yellow colour? Is it strong clear yellow or is it more like honey/ochre? I’m asking because I’m considering a yellow apron

    ArmStreet Team:

    Dear Inger, our linen colors are pretty bright. You may check them all here

  • Freya 03 of June 2019:

    Would it be possible to order this with brown apron, olive green dress and regular green trim?

    ArmStreet Team:

    Dear Freya, yes it is possible. However, the tunic won't look good with green accents that is why we do not offer such color combination. 

  • Johanme 30 of May 2019:

    Hi! I have this costume in blue and green, but I've come to wonder how to wash it? Do you have any specially recommended instructions for this? Thank you in advance.

    ArmStreet Team:

    Hi Johanme, please check our Care Guide here. In general, hand washing is preferrable. 

  • Sarah 10 of May 2019:

    This doesn't seem to be available in natural flax tunic and brown apron any longer. Is this colour combination not available anymore?

    ArmStreet Team:

    Dear Sarah, we have some brown linen left so you are most welcome to place the order for any color available and leave a comment to your order that apron should be in brown linen. 

  • Nuri 24 of April 2019:

    Is this still available to custom order in any color linen from the fabrics/trim page by entering it as a comment, or are we limited to the flax/blue/green?

    ArmStreet Team:

    Dear Nuri, yes, please simply tap on the "More Colors" button to select required color combination. 

  • Juniper 29 of March 2019:

    Hi! I may be missing it somewhere, but can I ask which belt the model in the brown and yellow themed dress is wearing? And to double check; she seems to be wearing a white chemise (?) under the dress. Would it be recommended to do so? Is it anything more than an additional, possibly more comfortable layer? Or would that be considered the "underwear" of the outfit. Sorry if this is confusing, thank you!

    ArmStreet Team:

    Hi Juniper, the model is wearing Ingrid belt. The chemise is shown in natural linen.  

  • Willow Ross 05 of March 2019:

    I have gone back and forth with all of your dresses and I have finally decided on this one but I don't see a custom size available for this dress...I am very tall and just need a little extra length. Can we do that?

    ArmStreet Team:

    Dear Willow, this is the listing for the costume in custom size. Please simply add this listing to your cart and fill in all the required measurements at the checkout. 

  • Catherine Kiss 21 of February 2019:

    Love this dress!!!!

  • Suzi 28 of January 2019:

    Do you have pictures of the other color combinations? Could you send any to me if you do. Thank you.

    ArmStreet Team:

    Hi Suzi! We do not have such pictures, but our support manager can take them for you. Please let us know which color combinations you are interested in.

  • Silver Tess 08 of January 2019:

    Hi - I notice on the Ingrid Hearthkeeper underdress, there appears to be ties. Are these on the tunic sold with the apron dress for the set, or is that on another underdress that needs to be purchased separately? Thank you!

    ArmStreet Team:

    Hi Tess! The underdress chemise can be purchased separately here

  • Ceejay 02 of January 2019:

    Hi I would like to purchase the Ingrid Hearthkeeper dress & apron set in a size 4. If I go into the items individually it gives me the option to order off the shelf for presumably immediate shipping, but in the combined set it asks me to put in my measurements & quotes 54 - 57 days manufacturing time. I would like these for an event in February but don’t want to have to pay extra for ordering them separately. Is there any way you can help me please? Many thanks.

    ArmStreet Team:

    Hi Ceejay! Please simply order the set and leave a comment to your order that it is needed in size 4 and we will ship it immediately. 

  • Jess 18 of September 2018:

    Hi Armstreet, I have a question about the 'Ingrid the Hearthkeeper' dress and apron set. I have measured myself and am a comfortable size 4 by your size charts, and am wondering if the dress and apron could be made in that size without me supplying all the additional measurements on the order page? Or is that option only available if they are purchased separately? Thanks.

    ArmStreet Team:

    Dear Jess! Please simply leave a comment to your order that size 4 is needed and we will ship the set in size 4 for you. 

  • Alaina 18 of September 2018:

    In regards to this outfit, if I were to leave a comment in the purchase specifying the Ready to Ship size that I wear, and those pieces were in stock, would the set be shipped out quicker or would they still need to be made?

    ArmStreet Team:

    Hi Alaina! We can ship the pre-made tunic and apron right away. Please simply leave a comment to your order with the desired size for the set.

  • Heather 12 of September 2018:

    Do you know where I might be able to purchase the viking beads/necklace?

    ArmStreet Team:

    Hello, the viking beads/necklace was made specially for the photo shoot and not available for purchase, unfortunately. 

  • Carrie Engelke 31 of August 2018:

    Is it possible to do the tunic in a burgundy linen and the apron in green with the trim from the noblewomen's XIV century woolen dress? If so, what shade of burgundy would it be?

    ArmStreet Team:

    Hi Carrie! Yes, it is possible to make this dress with Sansa trim. You are welcome to check all linen colors here

  • Carma 25 of July 2018:

    Do you have these in stock or do you have to order/special make,

    ArmStreet:

  • Laura 11 of April 2018:

    Do you sell the strings of beads for the Ingrid outfit?

    ArmStreet Team:

    Hi Laura! The necklace is not available for purchase, unfortunately. 

  • Annie 22 of February 2018:

    Hi, do you have a list of Linen colours that can be viewed for customisations? Kind Regards Annie

    ArmStreet Team:

    Hi Annie! Sure, all linen colors can be seen here

  • Melody Calvert 08 of December 2017:

    For some reason it is not letting me enter measurements. What am I doing wrong?

    ArmStreet Team:

    Dear Melody, kindly make sure you have selected custom size option for the outfit. 

  • Maureen 15 of September 2017:

    Hi! can the olive linen be used with this dress? Also, can the trims be changed at all? If so, what other trims do you have?

    ArmStreet Team:

    Hi Maureen! Yes, it is possible. Please check our trim selection here

  • Maureen 15 of September 2017:

    Oh! I also meant to ask if you can get side pockets added to the apron.

    ArmStreet Team:

    Hi Maureen! Side pockets are not possible for this apron, unfortunately. 

  • Jo 16 of August 2017:

    Is it possible to order these without the ribbon-trim? I'd want to sew on my own cardwowen decorations.

    ArmStreet Team:

    Hi Jo! Yes, it is possible. Please simply leave this comment to your order. 

  • Odin 01 of April 2017:

    Can you make this in a child's size say for a six-year-old? If so how much would that cost?

    ArmStreet Team:

    Hi Odin! We can make it for a child if she is taller than 44 inches (110 cm)

  • Sarah 28 of January 2017:

    Hi Armstreet Is there a way to have the Viking "Ingrid the Hearthkeeper" Apron and Dress special without being limited to those 2 colours of blue and green? Or is the special just for the 2 colours? Many Thanks Sarah

    ArmStreet team:

    Sure, it is possible, just mention the preferred colour in the comments to your order.

  • Natasja Rose 18 of November 2016:

    Can I order just the apron?

    ArmStreet team:

    Sure! The apron is available separately.

  • Sharon Allgeier 21 of September 2016:

    Is custom sizing available and what would the cost difference be? I do have my measurements.... Thank you!

    ArmStreet team:

    We make plus size clothes, please let us know your measurements (full height, chest, waist, hips, biceps). Most likely we`ll need to ask you to pay some extra as plus sizes require more fabric and work.

  • robyn 03 of September 2016:

    Can the dress be made in burgundy with a green apron?

    ArmStreet team:

    The dress can be made in Burgundy linen with Green Apron, please mention it in the comments to your order.

  • Anne 21 of July 2016:

    Hello! It looks like she's wearing a chemise with this dress and apron, is it the "Viking Linen Undertunic Chemise “Eydis the Springdancer”"?

    ArmStreet team:

    The chemise the model is wearing is slightly different from “Eydis the Springdancer”, it's not listed on the website yet. The chemise "Eydis the Springdancer" will fit this set very good too, as the difference is imperceptible.

  • jolien 07 of July 2016:

    I was wondering what colours of brown would the dress or apron come in or is only the one shade of dark brown. Does the trim on the dress only come in the green and blue?

    ArmStreet team:

    Yes, now we have just one shade of brown available, here's the swatch so you could see it better. As for the trim, this one comes only in green and blue, but it can be change to some of our other trims, please let us know which trim do you like.

  • Ásta Helgadóttir 29 of April 2016:

    where can I find the chemise that the model is wearing in the pictures?

    ArmStreet Team:

    Hi Ásta! Chemise is available here

  • Bríghid 30 of March 2016:

    Is it still possible to order the apron on its own, and if so, what is the price of it? Many Thanks.

    ArmStreet Team:

    Hi Bríghid! Yes, you are welcome to order the apron here

  • Stephanie 11 of March 2016:

    Is there an extra charge for plus sizes?

    ArmStreet Team:

    Hi Stephanie! Yes, please contact our support team for details. 

  • Hayley 24 of February 2016:

    Can the apron be worn over a narrower dress such as the Red Elise dress, or is it too wide?

    ArmStreet Team:

    Hi Hayley! Sure, it can be worn over narrower dress. 

  • Nicole 25 of January 2016:

    Hello! I was wondering if this dress could be ordered, either as a special order, or with notes for a different color combination? Any information would be helpful! Thanks, Nicole

    ArmStreet Team:

    Hi Nicole! Yes, it is possible. 

  • Natalie de Clare 25 of January 2016:

    Can this dress and apron be made from blue and green wool instead of linen?

    ArmStreet team:

    This costume cannot be made of wool, it's too thick and stiff for such a cut, sorry.

  • Mathilde 05 of January 2016:

    Hi! How wide is the trim on Ingrid and is it possible to get it on the Autumn Princess? I just have to say; your dresses are gorgeous!

    ArmStreet Team:

    Hi Mathilde! It is about 3.5 cm wide. Unfortunately, it is not wide enough for the Autumn Princess dress. 

  • Jennifer Leahy 15 of December 2015:

    Can this set be made with any of the colors listed with the pieces as individual items? And can shipping be combined or reduced with a large order?

    ArmStreet team:

    Technically this set can be made in some different colors, but please note the following:

    • the accents can be made in brown, green, blue, black;

  • Marjolein 20 of October 2015:

    I was wondering if you have customer pictures of other colors? :)

    ArmStreet team:

    This costume has not been ordered in custom colors yet. Please note, it can be made only in certain colors, as stated in comments below.

  • Sinead 13 of October 2015:

    Well now I know what I'll be spending my paychecks on, but I've never been so excited at the prospect of not having money.

  • Luna Dove 24 of September 2015:

    In my experience linen wrinkles badly and needs to be ironed at the dry cleaners. Is this linen like that? If so what about making it in cotton that does not wrinkle badly? I so love the outfit; however do not like to iron

    ArmStreet team:

    Sorry, this costume cannot be made in cotton. Linen crumples easily, since it's 100% organic. Here are some tips to reduce wrinkles:

    • Use 40°C (104°F) water for wash in gentle/delicate mode
    • Extraction (spinning) in gentle/delicate mode to simplify the ironing
    • Remove the clothes immediately, when the last spin cycle of the washing machine finishes
    • Do not use hot drying
    • Line or flat drying is recommended
    • Steam ironing is recommended to undo wrinkling

  • Jenny Ronchak 16 of September 2015:

    Which belt is she wearing in the photos?

    ArmStreet team:

    Model wears women's Viking belt with embossing. It's not available for order on the site yet, but should be listed soon. Stay tuned!

  • Ben 12 of August 2015:

    Is it possible to make the apron in red?

    ArmStreet team:

    Nope, sorry. The apron can be made in brown, green, blue, black, orange, dark blue, yellow.

  • Steve Kelly 07 of August 2015:

    Can the apron be made without the lacing and without the split in the back?

    ArmStreet team:

    Sorry, the apron cannot be made without the slit and lacing.

  • tove jannecke wiik 30 of July 2015:

    Can i get the apron longer in the back down to the tunic trim? Is it also possible to order it in other colors too? Both apron and tunic? The trim is then not needed if that's the only reason why not! The one you have in picture is very beautiful, there are just a few options in the color selection, that makes it difficult to order cause colors are not flattering on me Kind regards Tove Jannecke

    ArmStreet team:

    The apron can be made longer for $25 extra, but over the entire circumference. Can not be made longer in the back and shorter in front, sorry.

    The set can be made in some different colors, but please note the following:

    • main color of the tunic should differ from the accents on the apron;
    • accents can be made in brown, green, blue, black;
    • tunic can be made in natural, brown, green, blue, black, orange, dark blue, yellow;
    • apron can be made in brown, green, blue, black, orange, dark blue, yellow.

  • Jennifer Hansen 29 of July 2015:

    Is it possible to change to different linen colors for the apron and the dress?

    ArmStreet team:

    The set can be made in some different colors, but please note the following:

    • main color of the tunic should differ from the accents on the apron;
    • accents can be made in brown, green, blue, black;
    • tunic can be made in natural, brown, green, blue, black, orange, dark blue, yellow;
    • apron can be made in brown, green, blue, black, orange, dark blue, yellow.

    This dress is absolutely amazing, I'm glad I finally pulled the trigger and went for it, 100% happy and will be ordering more soon. They stay true to the measurements you send them. It was heavier than I expected but that just makes it warmer :)

  • Krystle Brogna 22 of June 2024:

    I absolutely LOVE my dress. So comfortable, breaths well, fits great, and makes me feel beautiful. This was my wedding dress and I couldn't have been happier with how it came out. Their customer service was also great and it shipped really fast.

  • Shari Wells 10 of September 2023:

    Outstanding! The dress and apron are beautiful and extremely well made! Armstreet is very high quality. I keep buying outfits for my collection!


  • Jennifer 20 of June 2023:

    I loved my dress once it arrived. The length was perfect, but the apron still doesn't quite fit. I guess either my measurements that I sent in weren't exact enough for my bust and waist or... not sure what happened but it's almost 2" off. Overall it's a great quality and I have other clothes that I plan to purchase but I'll have to be as tight on my measurements as possible.

  • Sara 11 of June 2023:

    Such a great costume! I am 5 foot 2 and about 145 pounds in a size 6. I had to fold over the hem of the dress and lost the bottom trim. I did not have to hem the apron. If you are short, I would recommend getting one in a custom size. But overall great looking and very comfortable to wear. Wonderful quality.


  • Daria 23 of May 2023:

    Absolutely amazing!! I go to SCA events and wanted some viking garb and I couldn't be happier it is so incredibly beautiful and comfortable. I am plus sized and got the outfit custom made and it fits perfectly to my measurements. Thank you all so much!

  • Patricia 30 of April 2023:

    Absolutely beautiful dress and apron! I ordered custom size and it fits perfectly. I love the linen so much I even made a messenger bag out of the draw string bag that the dress came in! The blue is beautiful against the black too!!


  • Becky 30 of April 2023:

    Absolutely amazing the customer service was phenomenal and it was well worth the wait. I wanted a color that was out of stock and I’m plus size. This is easily the best Viking garb I own. The fit it awesome and I feel so confident in it.


  • Jo 19 of April 2023:

    Great fitting and matherials, the costume works well together just like shown in the pictures. Very happy with the product.

  • Jennifer 26 of December 2022:

    Beautiful quality work as with all their products. You can tell how much care went into every stitch. I have absolutely no buyer's regret shopping here :)

  • Roberts Doreen 14 of November 2022:

    I received my outfit it was even better than I could imagine the colors were vibrant and received so many compliments


  • Justice 17 of October 2022:

    Gorgeous, beautiful, and so many more lovely things to say about this piece! I realized I hadn’t sent in my feedback yet, after a while of already having this, and I thought it only right to do so! I am in love with it!! I had it made to size and it fits perfectly in all the right places; I wore it to a faire and not only did people love the look but they recognized the brand- I can’t wait for my most recent order to come in!!


  • Rachelle 04 of August 2022:

    So happy with this set. Got the custom since the colors I wanted weren't available in the ready made options at the time, and I am SO impressed with the fit. I've never worn a dress I didn't feel like I wanted to either have shapewear under or a corset over and this one made my feel so comfortable and looked great without any help. I would normally fall about into the size 12 for reference. The tunic on its own will make a great dress and of course the combo with the apron is so gorgeous. I can't wait to wear it out somewhere. This was my first armstreet purchase, and I've already purchased more since getting this. There will absolutely be more in the future as well.

    I purchased this for a reenactment event and it was just perfect. The fabric is so soft and comfortable. I also love the colors of the linen. I have the natural dress and 3 aprons, blue, green and brown. It's also amazing how durable they are for working all day at a Renaissance festival.

  • Liz 14 of March 2022:

    Absolutely love this dress and apron, they are beautifully made and comfortable to wear.

    I have the tunic dress in midnight blue and green and the apron dress in brown. I love it! The midnight blue dress and brown apron I bought custom; the green tunic dress I bought with their "off the shelf" option and did have to alter it to fit as a result, but the quality and craftsmanship on both are phenomenal. I do have the Embroidered Viking Coat as well and their Eidas Chemis. Although I largely bought them for beauty, I can't believe how functional they are! As a test, I went out in a snow storm and 5F temperature with only the viking garb on (chemis, tunic dress, apron dress, and wool coat). Amazing, I was perfectly comfortable for an hour, yet I can still be fully comfortable at room temperature with the same outfit (sans the wool coat). Also, I've owned these products for going on 2 years with routine weekend wear and there is virtually NO wear to them. No pulled seams, no pulled threads, no running dyes (though to be fair I follow careful wash and care protocol with anything linen or wool), no stretching or deforming. They are incredibly well made

    I have this set in Green and blue and it is so Beautiful and so well made - The under dress has more volume than I expected and it is gorgeous the way it wears !! I am saving up for the brown and beige set !!

    My first Armstreet clothing purchase, and definitely not my last. The custom sizing made this fit like an absolute dream, and its so comfortable and beautiful


  • Bethany Smith 18 of September 2020:

    I absolutely love the Viking women’s collection. Proper cloth and solid construction make these clothes that can actually be worn and worked in, which I absolutely do, baby in tow.


  • Sara 01 of July 2020:

    I am in love with this dress! The fabric, the sewing.. It is everything I hoped for! I even got another colour trim which suits better for my liking. I never felt prettier! And the dress is just amazing. Wish I could post a picture to show how wonderful it twirls. I will forever recommend Armstreet to my friends for amazing clothing like this!

    I ordered this dress in a custom size and colour for the apron (burgundy) both pieces fit perfectly and the different colour choices looked amazing.

  • Marie-Soleil 12 of May 2020:

    I took the custom option for the dress I was excited to receive it, but decide to take the normal shipping option. I notice that once the shipping was done, I had no option to track it. The only information I had was that it left the company. I wrote an email to armstreet and they said that they didn't know why it happened. But with all the Covid-19 going on, I knew it was a special situation. I finally got the dress and the colors are perfect! I'm so in love with the dress, I like the quality and all the measurements are fit to mine. The only thing that I notice is that circumference of the arm are a bit tight. When I hold my tankard, it gets really tight over the elbow and down to the hand. But I can manage that because the dress is simply amazing!


  • Elizabeth 07 of May 2020:

    BEAUTIFUL! This truly is just as beautiful as in the photos. The craftsmanship is lovely and very comfortable. The fabric is wonderful quality and the design is perfect. I couldn't be happier! Also, the customer service was great! I ordered this costume custom made. There was a mix up on the sizing, so I sent it back. In following their instructions on how to correct the sizing, they made a new one without question and it arrived in perfect condition with the new sizing! I couldn't be happier and am excited to wear my Ingrid dress for years to come!

  • norah 04 of January 2020:

    I feared the apron would be heavy and drag me down over the dress. Not true! Both pieces are great!

  • Hannah 16 of December 2019:

    I have been eyeballing and drooling over this set ever since it was released and I finally got enough saved to purchase it and could not be happier. The custom sizing was spot on, the material was an absolutely beautiful quality linen. Everything is so well stitched and made it’s beyond worth the price. When I had questions the crew at Armstreet was very quick to respond and help me, even when I needed to change the mailing address last minute. I cannot wait to put in my next order.

  • Andrea Neva 18 of November 2019:

    I did the custom order option of the Ingrid the Hearthkeeper dress. 1 - cause i'm a curvy full figured gal that falls into multiple sizes 2 - my brother & i love going to renaissance fairs & representing our different heritages and we like to match our costumes. I emailed and asked if i could get this in black and red fabrics, got a super friendly response telling me that it wouldn't be a problem. I sent in with my measurements. This dress fit amazing! Quality is outstanding, linen fabric is what i'd call a lighter/medium weight. Not see through or super thick and heavy. Will be perfect for AZ ren fairs. The tunic would also make a great dress without the apron, if i ever wanted to change the look up. I'm so happy i found Armstreet. My brother got Bjorn woodsman tunic & linen viking pants in blacks & reds. He's 6'4" so it was a custom order. Excellent quality on those items as well. He couldn't believe how comfy the pants are and that they went the extra mile with gussets in the arm pits for ease of movement.

  • sandra 23 of October 2019:

    I ordered the dress in white and brown apron combination. I thought I could fit a standard size 10 but I sent my measurements with the order and the wonderful folks at Armstreet custom made the dress from my submitted measurements. I am so glad they did! The dress is perfect-the fit is wonderful. The dress is really beautiful and the craftsmanship is stellar. Thank you Armstreet team. Will be ordering again!

  • Amanda 19 of October 2019:

    Best dress I've ever got so far! The details are beyond expextations, the measurements were excellent and the fabrics are the best , especially if you want to experience some winter larp events! Will definitely buy from Armstreet again and of course already suggested this wonderful site to my larp friends !

  • Abigail 10 of January 2019:

    My apron dress and underdress arrived today. They fit perfectly, are well made, and are very pretty. I am pleased with your work and materials and plan to order more things in the Spring. Thank you!

  • Laura 23 of January 2018:

    Hello, First i have been meaning to write forever to thank you for my previous order and will add comments directly to the costume specific pages (everything was outstanding, perfect, wonderful!) - thanks so very much for your fantastic products and your unequaled customer service! Laura

  • Brianna 21 of October 2017:

    Bought "Ingrid the Hearthkeeper" a while back and finally got to wear to a festival today! Love it!!


  • Jacqueline DuChateau 10 of December 2016:

    I just bought this combo and it's amazing! One question (and I feel ignorant for asking) but how do you attach the fibula? Thanks! Jacquie

    ArmStreet team:

    The fibulas should be attached to the shoulder straps, you should first tie the straps to the special loops and then just fasten the fibulas to the straps. You don`t need to use them to attack the straps.

  • Lisa 06 of May 2016:

    Hi! Just wanted to share a picture of my purchases earlier this year from the viking collection, because I love both these dresses to bits! The trim on the Eydis dress is the prettiest one I have seen, and I am often wearing the “Ingrid” apron dress with a plain t-shirt and tights as casual wear because I like it so much. Fits great and are easy to wash. Will come back for more pretty clothes in the future!!!


    ArmStreet team:

    Wow, you've combined them in such an original way, like a true fashionista star! Thank you a bunch for the picture, Lisa!
