Tudor Costume

Tudor Costume

From French gowns to scholars caps, whether courtly costume or practical everyday clothing for the common sort, here at G Hughs & Son we strive to re-create highly authentic Tudor costume replicating the styles and textures of the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries.

The example pictured on the right shows a complete Tudor French Gown, a commission from G Hughs & Son includes made to measure shift, stays, underpinnings, petticoats, gown and hood, as well as accessories sourced by us. A commission with us could include an entire ensemble or just an element of the outfit such as a suitable head piece.

Whatever your Tudor costume needs, here at G Hughs & Son we can make that happen.

We can also create children's Tudor costume, perfect for families. Why not make your children into the prince or princess they've always wanted to be! 

Discounts for family orders may be applicable, please contact for details.

As well as fabulous Tudor gowns, here at G Hughs & Son we also aspire to make recreations of historically accurate clothing. 

On the left we can see a typical example of a Tudor Scholar's cap, commonly worn by clergy at the time, as demonstrated by the engraving of John Knox. 

The quality we provide is perfect for educational purposes in Living history contexts or as museum pieces.
