EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time and immerse yourself in the elegance and grandeur of the 15th century with this image of high-waisted houppelandes worn by ladies of the aristocracy. These sumptuous gowns, adorned with turned-down collars, V-necks, funnel sleeves, and trains, were a symbol of wealth and status during the medieval period. The sideless surcoats, mantles, girdles, headdresses, templers, and veils added an extra layer of opulence to these already magnificent garments. The high waistline, a defining feature of these gowns, accentuated the hourglass figure and emphasized the narrow waist, while the voluminous skirts provided ample fabric for intricate embroidery and rich textiles. The turned-down collars and V-necks framed the faces of the wearers, drawing attention to their delicate features. Funnel sleeves, with their bell-shaped cuffs, added a playful touch to the otherwise formal attire. The mantles, worn draped over the shoulders, provided an additional layer of warmth and protection from the elements. The girdles, often embellished with precious stones and metals, cinched the waist and accentuated the hourglass figure. Headdresses, adorned with flowers, jewels, or elaborate structures, completed the regal look. Templers and veils, worn to signify marriage or religious devotion, added an air of mystery and intrigue to the ensemble. The English crown and sceptre, held by one of the ladies, serve as a reminder of the powerful monarchy that ruled during this period. This stunning collection of high-waisted houppelandes, with their intricate details and timeless beauty, transport us to a world of elegance, luxury, and grandeur that continues to captivate our imaginations.
