Kirtle
A kirtle is a
tunic-like
garment worn by men and women in the
Middle Ages or, later, a one-piece garment worn by women from the later Middle Ages into the
Baroque period. The kirtle was typically worn over a
chemise or smock and under the formal outer garment or
gown.Kirtles were part of fashionable attire into the middle
sixteenth century, and remained part of country or middle-class clothing into the
seventeenth century.Kirtles could be loose garments without a waist seam, or could be made as a combined
bodice and
petticoat, depending on their use and the current fashion. Kirtles typically laced up the back or side-back, especially when worn under front-lacing gowns as in sixteenth century Germany and the Low Countries.
