Medieval Fashion
By Sharon Fabian

¹     Do you want to be a fashion designer? Would you like a chance to show off your talent? Well, here it is! Enter the medieval fashion design challenge!

²     Your challenge is to create one medieval outfit for a woman and one for a man. You may use wool, silk, or linen. Leather should be used for footwear, and warm outer garments may be lined in fur. Fabrics in their natural colors may be used. So may fabrics colored with natural plant dyes. Embellishments, or decorations, may include gold and silver embroidery and even gemstones. Headwear should be included with the woman's outfit but is optional with the man's outfit.
