Surcot Albrun, wool - autumn green

In the Middle Ages, the surcot was a sleeved tunic worn by both sexes and all classes. The name comes from the fact that it was worn over the cotte. A sleeveless surcot was also called a sockie.

In the 12th century, the surcot for men was long, over the knee, slightly slit at the front and was almost always belted. In the 13th century, the surcot was often hooded, and in the 14th and 15th centuries it developed into a tight dress with padding at the chest and buttons down the front, rarely exceeding half the thigh.

For women in the 10th and 11th centuries, the surcot was a linen undergarment, a kind of overshirt, but was also worn belted as a second skirt under the cloak. In the 13th century, the surcot became a real dress with sleeves that fitted close to the hand, a train and with or without a belt (see illustration). In the 14th and 15th centuries, it then descended again to an undergarment, which became visible under the raised pleats and was later called a corset. (Source Wikipedia)
