==Generic Women's Fashion AD 793-1215==
Generic kit for women consists of a dress and a head covering. An under shift, mantle and shoes may also be worn. A cloak may be substituted if a mantle is not available and for early or very late period events. Leg wear, if worn, must follow the same rulings as for men, but should not normally be seen.

==Ornamental brooches, Pins pins & Necklacesnecklaces==
Small delicate dress brooches are also sometimes worn such as the cloisonné brooches or bird brooches.
Although we have little evidence for gloves, people did have woollen mittens. These can be made either by nålebinding or from woven cloth.
==Shoes & Bootsboots==
Shoes are of the simple, two-part turn shoe construction and are usually low, coming to below the ankle. These must be made of vegetable tanned leather. Applied soles and heels made from suitable leather may be used to prolong the life of the shoes.
Most of the evidence from Regia’s period points to people mainly wearing slipper type shoes rather than boots. No C12th style Norman laced boots can be worn before [[Late|AD 1041]]. Toggle style boots may however be worn pre [[Early|AD 980]].
