Gorgeously embroidered with traditional Celtic knotwork, this lovely bodice is made in a heavy cotton twill with embroidery on the peplums (waist) and epaulets (shoulders) for the Celtic Merchant Bodice. The Petal Bodice would have just the peplums. The epaulets also help keep shoulders from getting sunburned!
As is standard with our bodices, it is made of heavy, washable cotton twill with boning next to the lacing to avoid unseemly bunching. All seams are reinforced to withstand the rigors of Faire / LARP life. This garment is REVERSIBLE! (Exception! If you order sleeves for your Merchant Bodice, then it can no longer be reversible) Your fabric color choice is the 'outside' of the garment. The "liner" side comes standard in black. Other color options for the "liner" side may be requested in the Special Instructions section.
Made in 100% cotton fabric and is machine washable. Removable Sleeves are available. Pictures below. Sleeves would tie in under the epaulets for the Merchant Bodice. Petal Bodice would have a line of grommets at the shoulder for lacing. Sleeve option for the Merchant Bodice renders it NON Reversible.

July through November orders may run over 10 weeks due to our show schedule. Occasionally we can manage rush orders or MAY have the item in stock, please contact us before ordering. Thank you for taking this into consideration when placing your order.
