@funky-sea-cryptid asked me to draw their Malcolm (she/they, I think?) a while back, so here they are! We used to lean in quite heavily toward the potential Norse culture of Malcolm’s mother Suthen, so I decked them out in a fun Norse dress fit for a king/queen :)

Yesterday I got to tap into my inner Seiðkona and debut my apron dress at the Renaissance Faire. Seeing this outfit come together was a spiritual experience, and I can't wait to update her and continue to use her for holidays and rituals

Its armor and weapons or massive bling - there's no in between with this kid. She finally approves of the dress.

Tunic is linen from armstreet. Dress is made from bargain bin knit fabic with a fulled appearance to conceal the weave. Panel is cotton with brocaded trim, and beads are plastic so I won't regret if they break. Is it a bit overboard? Yeah, but if it gets her to play then cool beans. Now I need to make something for the wife to complete a full family outfit in norse theme. I look forward to being finished so we can maybe pay a visit to to the land of liripipes next

some of your thoughts on iron islands fashion? I'm esp interested in house harlaw with their acceptance of greenlander influences!

Hi yes!! I know Norse clothing is kinda the default for iron islanders but I feel like it works really well

Life on the iron islands canonically sucks donkey balls, so the shitty living conditions paired with their failed pirating role play means that there isn’t much commerce going on. For common folk, it’s all roughspun work clothes, women wear a shift, a rough gown and possibly a shorter apron (held up with brooches) depending on the occasion. For men it’s a tunic and big pants that can be tied at the ankle for practicality. It’s all ab practicality. The only jewelry is the stuff they stole

Also when they reave the coasts, their asses are NAWT wearing proper armor which makes sense bc they’re always on boats but is a tiny issue once they step off and realize their enemies are wearing hard plate armor and they’re wearing a rough leather jerkin or loose ring mail AT BEST. Just light armor, shitty weapons, untied hair flying around in their face, and vibes

For wealthy women, there is a noticeable difference from the smallfolk, but they wouldn’t be distinguishable anywhere else in the seven kingdoms. That apron is always going to be there as a display of extra fabric and hence extra wealth, and it’s always very much decorated with their fathers/husbands stolen trinkets. Much more colorful and finely spun fabrics too. Wealthy men probably wear similar silhouettes to the small folk (just neater and better made) bc they can’t be seen as bitch boys with soft hands (looking at you theon)

On Harlaw, with the greenlander influences, there is some difference, especially the chest and waist. While typical islander clothing isn’t very tight or belted extremely, it’s noticeably more prominent on Harlaw. There is also a cross over with the traditional apron/westerlands overdress that leads to a mix between the two fashions. There might also be more trade here and hence a larger variety of fabrics and jewelry compared to the rest of the islands

And for priests and priestesses of the drowned god the show actually got the vibes right. Just gross old tattered robes bc they aren’t *worldly*, driftwood carving headdresses and charms. Fishing nets draped across their shoulders. Seaweed braided into their hair and covering their eyes bc the drowned god leads the way. Just sheer perfection when it comes to unsettling vibes

#asoiaf #ASOIAF hair and clothing #Viking and Norse clothing u will always be famous to me #I love the Norse apron dress so much it’s so cute and practical I want one

Literally every culture that claims viking/norse/germanic heritage has insanely colorful, richly embroidered folk clothing.

Go ahead and cross stitch on your apron dress for the Renn Faire.

Drab solid "civilized " colours are revisionism and usually colonial/ fascist revisionism at that.

I am almost finished with my Norse Völva/Seeress apron dress. She's a very slow continual work in progress, but the base dress has been completed and all I have left until her debut is completing the turtle brooch jewelery.

I plan on showing her off to the world during the Viking weekend at our Ren Faire, but the ultimate goal is to form a relationship with the piece and use it for all my big rituals.

Belt Fitting/ belt mount

Merovingian dynasty Europeans loved to wear belts. They were today’s purses and held plenty of people’s personal belongings and hygiene tools. It’s possible that a variety of materials were used as belts, such as simple ropes from natural material, tablet woven belts, but most known are leather belts.

The leather has decayed, but it’s decorations show the owner’s wealth. Leather belts were decorated with metal mounts, in the case of belts more often called “fittings”. These fittings include thick pins on the back which allows for a secure fit.

Most often a belt consisted of a metal buckle, with the other end being decorated with another, often matching in style fitting. These often have different shaped, which may indicate that the edges of the leather were shaped to taste. The most elaborate belts consist of fittings all over the length of the belt.

The example above is a rarer decoration style, with enamel used instead of a full metal relief decorated or garnet decorated fitting. Despite being found in a grave dated to 630-640, the style may indicate that the fitting is actually older, most likely being passed on from one generation to the next, possibly originating from the 500-550’s.
