LARP Clothing

As opposed to authentic medieval clothing based on definitive archeological findings, in terms of stylistic elements, LARP garments can be designed more freely. Aside from historical references, LARP garments can be inspired by costumes from movies, videogames, or even completely free-standing designs. Creativity knows no boundaries here—as long as the final design looks coherent.

LARP garments for starters

To begin LARPing, it is usually sufficient to start in simple garments that you can buy from online stores. Individual pieces can be quickly combined to create a simple and unique outfit. Depending on whether the chosen character is based upon historical accuracy, leans more toward fantasy, or whether it belongs to a certain profession (fighter or monk for instance), you can chose to base your LARP garments on the Vikings, monks’ cowls, or medieval dresses.

Combining individual LARP garments

The customized basic garments can be combined with accessories such as hats, bonnets, hoods, or cloaks to create LARP garments that are complete and functional, so the outfit doesn’t look like a costume but instead will bear a compelling resemblance to everyday clothing. Accessories complementing LARP garments may be historically accurate as well as fantastic, and can be combined freely. You can look at some examples for great combinations from different epochs and styles on our website.

  • Skjoldehamn Gugel Knud Herringbone - Black/Grey

    The Skjoldehamn Cowl was discovered in a pagan grave from the first half of the 11th century. This is one of the first examples of the headgear "Gugel" itself.
    The hood has a basic square shape, characteristically the wide brim ends with a corner on the chest.

    The grave find from Skjoldehamn raised many questions since its recovery in 1936 and still occupies today. According to current research, the dating of the pagan grave in the marshland is the first half of the 11th century. The hood of the gugel from Skjoldehamn has a simple square basic shape and a very wide brim which does not fall round but with a corner on the chest. This gugel is also a very early example of the type of headgear that became a ubiquitous garment in Europe during the Middle Ages.
    In the course of research, attempts were made to assign the garment to a gender and cultural group. For this purpose, not only the DNA of the buried person was examined more closely but also the additional finds. The enclosed trousers determined the theory of the researchers that the person must have been male. DNA examination in 1999 showed no Y chromosome present in the bones which supported the theory that it had to be a woman instead. However, this methodology is considered outdated.
    The question of culture points to Norway. This is assumed by ornamentation and morphological features which suggest that the buried person was a Sami tribal member. Further research is needed, as some key evidence for these hypotheses is still lacking. More modern DNA analysis and research into the history of the fashions of the various Sami groups will shed light on this.

  • Tunic Laylin - Brown

    If you want to stand out from the crowd, the tunic "Laylin" is ideal. The unusual cut and the short sleeves offer a high degree of freedom of movement; "Laylin" is elegant and has a subtle strangeness.
