Women's Renaissance Costumes

Have you ever wondered what lies in your future? No matter how regular your routine might be, you can never be sure!

Sure you might wake up every morning, hop in your car, go to work, eat dinner in front of the TV, then do it all over again. But how do you know that one of these days part of an airplane won't land in your dining room, hurting no one in your house but leaving you with a settlement of millions?

You never know! It could happen!

At least you would have a heads up if you had the second sight! There are plenty of people who claim they have the gift these days.

You can see them on TV, advertising in the back pages of local magazines, even your aunt Judy sometimes has those weird dreams. The thing is, some lady in a cable knit sweater can read your palm and tell you your future.

Maybe her predictions could even come true but it just doesn't feel that authentic without the mystic fortune teller garb. Maybe character makes the difference between a clairvoyant and a fortune teller.

When a person hears about their fate they want to hear the tinkle of bangles, see the sheen of velvet, and hearing they'll meet a tall dark stranger by someone with an Eastern European accent wouldn't hurt either! With this costume, you'll make the future interesting again!

In lush patterns and fabrics, you'll look right at home in a fortune teller caravan. This outfit features a peasant top with a plum paisley pattern layered under a velvety blue lace up vest.

She weeps day and night, waiting for a prince to save her. Yeah, no.

Not this maiden you see here. She's not in distress, she causes distress.

She'd liketo watch you try to stick her in a high tower somewhere. It would give her a reason to exercise her sword hand.

The Medieval times were not a good era for ladies and maidens alike. They were either expected to stay inside, sew, and keep quiet or they were getting kidnapped and trapped in one way or another.

Snow White was choked by an apple. Sleeping Beauty was thrown into a coma.

And when they were freed they were expected to commit to their rescuer for the rest of their lives. That doesn't sound great.

Priestesses of any faith are an enigmatic figure and a potentially frightening one, too. They speak with conviction and certainty.

They command respect, even amidst their enemies. And, occasionally, they call upon mighty powers that those who witness can only speculate from where it comes.

Even when they speak of their mighty lord, their one god, their flaming prince or emperor of light, we are all left wondering if this priestess is truly a proxy for such a powerful divine being or if they are somehow enacting a trick instead of a miracle. No matter what they are doing, it is hard to argue with that dominating eye.

Ultimately, we find ourselves following wherever we are bad. We may achieve tasks that we do not understand for goals that well never be fully explained.

All the while, we wait in desperate hope that we will once again see evidence of the priestesss divine power. Or, perhaps, we do as she commands out of the terrified hope that we will never again see her unleash her strange and exotic magic.

No matter what your followers choose to believe, all that is important is that they have faith in you as you have faith in your calling. For you are become like unto a lord of light when you step into this Red High Priestess costume.

The crushed velvet cape with faux leather flaps will keep you warm in the chill winter as though you ever feared the cold while alongside your flame!

This may be enough or perhaps you seek some skull or divine ornament accessories, or even a vivid red wig to complete your holy look.
