Gown, Viking, Woman's (Hangeroc)

The pattern for our 'Hangeroc' or Viking Apron dress is extrapolated from the description of extant pieces from the Hedeby find. Garment is made up of 6 panels: 2 unshaped
rectangles center front and center back, plus 2 tapered
pieces which match the description given for the Hedeby find
(i.e. A 'funnel' shaped piece that is straight on one side, rectangular at the top and flaring out from where the waist is supposed to have been).

A close fit is important, so the hangeroc is available in 11 even-numbered sizes from 32" - 52". To determine your correct size, take your bust measurement over the undergown and any foundation garments you plan to wear under the hangeroc. If you are between sizes (33, 37, etc.) order the next size up.

Colours for this garment have been carefully matched to natural dye samples. Developed in consultation with the Authenticity Officers for Regia Anglorum in the US and UK, as well as the Authenticity Officers for the Vikings UK and NA. This garment conforms to current Regia Anglorum and Vikings kit standards.
