Pirate Shirts

In literature, there are many examples of women who have thrown off the chains of everyday life and gone out into the world to find something better. For the woman who wants to cut the fabric of her own life, we have a blouse with the perfect cut.

Our black blouse with sleeve lacing is similar to men's Renaissance shirts, but for modesty's sake, the neckline does not plunge quite as deeply. The long, pointed cuffs lace up to fit a lady's wrists perfectly – and they stay out of the way during swordplay. The body of the blouse is gathered into the yoke for a billowing, romantic effect.

The red poet shirt is classically romantic and perfect for adventure on the high seas, atop a horse, or in an English garden. The wide sleeves and the wide, nonchalant cut allow this shirt to fit under any outer garments from the late Renaissance onward. Wear it over your breeches or trousers with a belt for a dashing look, or tuck it in.

Our red poet shirt comes in a lightweight, easy-care fabric. Elegant ruching draws attention to the cuffs and the neckline of this devil-may-care poet shirt in red. The sleeves lace at the cuffs and the neckline also has lacing, so you can adjust this shirt to fit perfectly. The red poet shirt is versatile enough to wear in combination with a variety of outfits.

This elegant shirt is right out of the Baroque era. The long, dramatic sleeves are shirred in several places, and the cuffs have graceful ruffles. A large, contrasting button at each cuff is echoed by a row of smaller ones that go up the front to the generous band collar.

To achieve the full effect of the three layers of ruffles at the front, this black Baroque shirt should be worn completely buttoned. Unlike the wide, roomy shirts of earlier epochs, this shirt makes a trim, noble statement.
