My new Finnish Iron Age outfit, minus the underdress.
One of the ‘wardrobes’ I’m examining for my Capsule Costume Collection is my Finnish Iron-Age costume ‘wardrobe’.
Finnish Iron Age capsule wardrobe
Calling my Finnish Iron Age costume items a “wardrobe” is a bit ambitious really. Right now what I have for this costume amounts to very few garments.
- I have one peplos-style overdress, and use the under dresses from my Viking Age wardrobe.
- I also have a small selection of accessories including a hat, two coil-embellished apron panels, and a few pairs of mittens.
- I also have jewelry like a set of brooches, and two necklaces. There are other accessories I would like to add (or improve upon what I have) like a knife.
However, each layer works well with other layers, and I think it’s another good candidate for a capsule wardrobe.
