Freya Historical Underdress – Authentic Elegance from Haithabu
Step into the past with the Freya Underdress, a beautifully recreated piece inspired by original garments unearthed in the historic Viking settlement of Haithabu (Hedeby).
🛡️ Historically Inspired Design
Faithfully based on archaeological findings, this underdress captures the spirit of early medieval craftsmanship, making it an ideal base layer for historical reenactments or period events.
🌿 Authentic Linen-Like Texture
Crafted from sturdy, raw cotton with a linen-like weave, the fabric features a coarse, rustic structure that enhances the garment’s genuine, heritage look. Despite its robust texture, it remains gentle and breathable on the skin.
🌞 Wear It Your Way
Traditionally worn beneath an overdress, but beautiful enough to wear on its own – pair it with a belt and accessories for a breezy summer outfit, or layer it for colder days. Versatile and timeless, the Freya dress is perfect for LARP, Viking festivals, medieval fairs, or everyday historical styling.
