Questions about the product Bliaut Amal: Medieval dress with hell windows

What material is the medieval dress Bliaut Amal made of, and what special features do the side seams have?

The medieval dress Bliaut Amal is made of 100% cotton. A special feature of the side seams are the so-called "hell windows," meaning armholes that extend very far down, revealing the undergarment.
Why are the side openings of the dress called "hell windows," and what shape are the sleeves of the Bliaut Amal?

These side openings are called "hell windows" because they reveal the undergarment, something the Church frowned upon in earlier times. The sleeves of the Bliaut Amal are flared out in a distinctive trumpet shape.
For which historical period is the design of the Bliaut Amal characteristic, and with which details can the fit of the dress be individually adjusted?

The design of the Bliaut Amal is characteristic of the fashion of the 11th to 13th centuries (High Middle Ages). The fit of the dress can be individually adjusted to the body using the side lacing at the so-called "hell windows," which extend from the arm to the hip.
What care instructions should be followed when cleaning the dress, which is made of 100% cotton, and what details ensure the wide shape of the skirt?

To ensure the longevity of this 100% cotton dress, it should be washed on a gentle cycle or by hand in cold water with a mild, pH-neutral detergent. It is recommended to turn the dress inside out before washing to protect the fibers and then air dry it. The full shape of the skirt is achieved through the construction from the waist seam down, as well as the use of historically inspired wide cuts, often made from multiple panels of fabric, to allow for maximum freedom of movement and authentic volume.
