Hats have been essential accessories through the past 5 centuries of fashion, whether l like them or not. To avoid my historical costumes being incomplete, I did some hot-glue millinery to decorate two hats with feathers and flowers! . . . while complaining lots, and talking about how intimidating historical accuracy can be. These hats are based on the Gainsborough or "Picture Hat" styles of the 1780s, 1890s, and 1900s/Edwardian era.

![A medieval Spanish Jews dress, but its cosplay?! Historical fantasy inspired by Guy Gavriel Kay
I sewed accurate (ish)11th century Medieval Jewish clothes from Spain / Al-Andalus. And a cosplay from Guy Gavriel Kays historical fantasy book The Lions of Al-Rassan. And its the same outfit.
This costume is the inevitable collision of my love of historical costuming, good fantasy books, and my Judaism. Ive been reconnecting with my Jewish heritage and learning about the history of my people through historical sewing projects to make the clothes they wore. Jews lived all over Europe (and Asia, and Africa) in the middle ages, but present-day Spain was one the best places for a medieval Jew to be. Al-Andalus, as its Islamic rulers called the Iberian peninsula, already had a larger Jewish population than the rest of Europe and quickly gained more by treating Jews better than neighboring Christian territories. While Jehane bet Ishak, the female physician and main character of Lions of Al-Rassan isnt explicitly Jewish, Guy Gavriel Kays universe clearly parallels our own with all the names changed. His historical setting is clear enough that I was able to focus in on the mid-11th century, and design and sew an outfit for Jehane as though she were a real person living in our world.
This costume was entirely hand-sewn, and includes historically accurate, historically-adequate, and completely fantastical elements.
