The DORINE Costume
The Lace-Up Bodice
Meticulously made from steel blue linen and lined with cotton for ultimate comfort, this bodice offers a perfect blend of style and functionality. With boning in the back seam and both sides of the front opening, it provides the essential structure for a flattering fit. The pre-shaped sleeves elegantly end at the elbow, adding a touch of grace to your Outlander Costume.

The Outlander Tartan Skirt
The skirt, crafted from Outlander tartan fabric, consists of two panels connected at the sides, with an open upper end on each side for easy wear.
This historically-inspired skirt features 18th-century-style pleats: at the front, pleats extend from the central box towards the sides, while at the back, they start from the sides and converge at the center.
In the images provided, the skirt is worn over a bum pad, which adds volume to the hips and accentuates the waist's slimness.

- The Outlander weavers paid close attention to detail, ensuring the colors and weaving style accurately represented the era and region of the Fraser Clan.
- Outlanders weavers took great care to design with the colors and style of looming that would have been available at the time and area of the Fraser Clan
- Tartan crafted with a hopsack plain weave with a wash to give it a natural and genuine look
