Renaissance ball - dresscode

Please note: Modern ball dress or everyday dress is not appropriate for this event!
This is a good opportunity to wear Renaissance costume, or period costume from medieval to early baroque/Stuart. If you don't have a costume, have a look at the links below (mostly in English) - contemporary dress can be easily adjusted to make a Renaissance-like outfit! Please avoid high heels, they are not suitable for Renaissance dance.
