KID COSTUMES

Making
COSTUMES
for KIDZ
Is TRES FUN!!!


The more “adult-like” the Kid’s costume, the more fun it is.

Just As With ADULTS,
Purchase of KIDZ “Renaissance Patterns”
Is not necessarily required!

You may ALREADY HAVE
a pattern that can be adapted to
BECOME a Kidz’ “Renaissance”
costume item. It’s simply a matter of
looking through what you’ve got for
SIMPLE garment patterns,
then using “Ren” fabrics, and
“nudging” patterns here and there!

All the patterns you see
on either side of this text
are patterns that I have used
to make KIDZ “Ren Costumes”!


Even INFANTS…
BTW!: If you live in Lincoln,
I’d be happy to LEND YOU
any of my patterns!
(You could even “copy” them
so that you’ll have
your own patterns to keep.)

… Can get in on the “ACT!”

Lasses’ Blouses &
Belt-Bodices

Use the
SAME DIRECTIONS

As for my
ADULT Blouse & Bodice directions.
Simply use the smaller (Lasses’)
measurements to make them!

Skirts &
Over-Skirts

Either buy a skirt,
or buy a skirt pattern!

For an “Over-Skirt”
however, MODIFY
the skirt pattern so that
it is not CLOSED
in front!

(Attach TIES to tie it
in Front!)

As For Sherts & Vests & Breeches (Trousers):

Master Niko, 2001
SAME DEAL –
ALMOST!

Find a PATTERN that is the
correct size for the KID you’re
making a costume for, and
follow my directions for Adult
Sherts & Vests & Trousers.

Make the costume
slightly “larger” than the
child’s actual measurements.
They can wear them
TWO Years in a row
(at least)!


Master Niko, 2002

Lady Catalina’s 2002
one-piece “chemise”
and bliaunt (“surcote”),
was made using the
Simplicity 9011 “Kimono”
pattern pictured at the
top-left o’ this page.

The “booties” are also
from that pattern!

Although the “booties” won’t fit her next year, the Chemise / Bliaunt WILL!!!

THAT’S IT FOR KIDZ!!!
