Men's houppelande. This iconic court garment is all about volume, presence, and detail: sweeping lines, high collars, and richly decorated finishes.
Perfect for reenactment, LARP, or even a historically inspired wedding, the houppelande is as versatile as it is striking. Unlike the floor-length women’s version, men’s styles came in a range of lengths - from practical mid-calf cuts to long, ceremonial silhouettes. Whichever you choose, the effect is the same: unmistakable status.
Complete the look with a chaperon, add a leather belt with a pouch, gloves, boots, garters, and wool trousers — and you’ve got a full late medieval outfit ready to turn heads.
Looking for historical references? Similar cuts appear in manuscripts like The Belles Heures of Jean de France, duc de Berry (1405–1409), illuminated by the Limbourg brothers, as well as in works inspired by Giovanni Boccaccio.
