Female Dalmatica
This ancient gown was worn by many early people and was popular in Roman and Byzantine times. It is shaped like a cross, and was appropriated as a distinctive garment by the enthusiastic and faithful followers of Christ, who
wore angustus clavus (stripes) of deep red or purple.
The Dalmatica is a closed garment with wide 3/4 length sleeves and a slit neck.
The female version has angled sleeves and is floor length. (Male version can be found here)
The Dalmatica is often ornamented by the angustus clavus, strips of trim.
In the 4th century, the Dalmatica was improved. The Clavi bands were no longer restricted to colors and they became more elaborate.
Trim can be added.
Worn in the SCA, for LARP, in Biblical Plays as a biblical costume, as a Roman soldier costume, as a Roman centurion costume.
Note: The cut of this garment served as the model for future dresses.
Made from medium weight cotton or cotton blend fabric.
