Welcome to Faire Ladies, Faire Lords! This is my site to buy renaissance costumes and historic clothing. I make women’s bodices and skirts, men’s breeches and shirts, doublets, hats, and so much more.
I create renfaire costumes such as European renaissance clothing, German Landsknecht costumes, English renaissance costuming, Irish garb, Spanish renaissance attire. These creative costumes are essential for renfaire cosplay, LARP games, theatre groups and films too.
Faire Ladies, Faire Lords was established in 1996, and I’ve been a costume designer for over 25 years. I specialize in handmade ‘traditional renfaire’ costuming for ladies and lords. My work is based on historical designs and Made in the USA. I use quality fabrics and over two decades of experience, skill and training. You won’t be disappointed.
There is a lot of work in my creations, from drafting patterns by hand, to prewashing and shrinking the fabrics that I use. These days, I’m in love with linen and linen blend fabrics, so you’ll see a lot of items in my catalog made with those fibers. Its really good stuff, and an excellent ethical choice for keeping our planet clean and safe. Other fabrics I use are all deadstock from Los Angeles Fabric District. Yes, another ethical solution for our modern times.
Renaissance Faires
I am a vendor at the Renaissance Pleasure Faire at Santa Fe Dam, California. I’m happy to be vending there for three seasons so far, and looking forward to many more. I was one of the original participants at the Koroneburg Renaissance Festival in Eastvale, California as well. Until recently I had a booth there too, you can read about it in my blog. Here is a video we made about it in 2020. <3
In the autumn I am a fulltime vendor at the Northern California Renaissance Faire. I hope you can come out to see me at one of my shows, though if not grabbing some good stuff online works too.
I’ve got a blog/newsletter page if you are interested in keeping up with my newest designs as well as the latest news and events for Faire Ladies, Faire Lords.
