cm 27x3 embroided strips for ONE euro

Embroided costume for about 100-150 euro and more complicated than our period tunics (if just we asked them for different shapes and fabric...?)...

Hey, I like the last one! Except for the collar, you could almost see it as a perfect late roman shirt! A very fancy one mind you, but very impressive work none the less! Just a notion of taste, not stating an argument of authenticity here! :wink:

Very cool THANKS!... did you use an online translator or do you speak Russian?

I tried to get Google to translate the site, as Iâ€™d like to browse and look for some other patterns and check out what they are made of (wool or linen would be ideal), butâ€¦ I canâ€™t read Russian.

It's actually Romanian, not Russian. :wink:
And Romanian is descended from Latin, so it's just a hop, skip and the Danube from Italian.
