How to Make a Renaissance Tunic

(This is an older tutorial I filmed a while ago and never got around to posting it, so the vid and sound quality are a little less than usual, and I don’t have a materials list for it, but it’s mostly just fabric, trim, scissors, sewing machine, and cording)

If you want to take short cuts, you can skip the lining on this Renaissance tunic, but the silky inside makes it more comfortable and look more regal. The tunic can be worn with or without an undershirt, but any shirt you wear under it should have somewhat baggy sleeves, and you may want to sew a little gold trim on the sleeve ends to match the gold trim on the tunic as I did here. The free pattern for this tunic can be downloaded here. It’s on a graph, so just use some graph paper to enlarge it to your size. The Renaissance tunic bottom should hang just above your knee.
