Lucrezia Shift - Ivory White

Product Description

The Lucrezia Shift is a flowing underdress made from soft, natural cotton crepé with a gentle crinkled texture that breathes easily during long days at events or battles. Designed with generous room and graceful volume, it falls from the shoulders to the ankles, making it perfect for layering. The gathered sleeves—adjustable at the bicep, elbow, and wrist with drawstrings—add an ornate and historical flair to your kit.

Historically inspired by late medieval and Renaissance women's undergarments, shifts like the Lucrezia were commonly worn beneath gowns to protect the outer layers and maintain hygiene. The use of shirring as a decorative technique has its roots in hand-sewing traditions dating back centuries and adds texture and elegance to an otherwise simple silhouette.
