DORINE, Peasant Costume in Chocolate Linen & Outlander Tartan Skirt

This 18th-century historical outfit faithfully reproduces one of the most popular costume designs in Western Europe and America around 1760-1770.

Perfect for all your historical reenactments, this 3-piece Outlander-inspired outfit will allow you to immerse yourself, like Claire Fraser, in the fascinating world of the 18th-century!

The short and tight bodice is made out of linen, and fully lined with cotton. The preshaped sleeves stop at the elbow. The jacket is tied on the front by means of a lace that goes through eyelets located on both sides of the opening.

Once the bodice is placed, you can slip behind the lace the stomacher (see options for colors) that will complete the outfit.

The petticoat is made of two panels of fabric (linen or tartan, according to the model), joined by the sides whose upper end remains open on each side. This opening allows you to easily put on the skirt.

The two panels of this historical petticoat are pleated in the style of the 18th century. On the front, the pleats start from the central box towards the sides. On the back, the folds start from the sides to converge in the middle of the back.

In the photos, the petticoat is worn over a bum pad that will bring volume to the hips and will emphasize the finesse of the waist.

Dorine bodice is made of prewashed medium-weight linen (205gr/m), in a range of colors matching Atelier Serraspina's color palette. You can therefore combine your Dorine bodice with petticoats, linen or tartan shawls, as well as with sashes from the entire boutique.

Turn inside out before washing. Use cold hand wash only. Do not bleach, soak, rub, or tumble dry.

Tartan Fabric:

Put your garment in a bowl with cold water and one drop of wool washing up liquid. Then rinse properly a couple of times and after rinsing with your hands, lay the garment in a towel, fold it and leave it to dry like this before airing it again.

Tumble driers are not the best for wool products as they tend to shrink them, so it is best to air dry.

Place the garment flat on a clean towel, re-shape it by laying it out in its normal shape and leave to air dry.
