Burgundian fashion aesthetics study.
Small studies to get the feel of particular style for future drawings. It`s not super accurate depiction, just an artistic expression.

Day 30: Canon Divergence AU
If the day ever comes when Gendry would rather wield a sword than forge one, send him to me. He has the look of a warrior.
Lord Eddard is able to escape the city with his daughters and any of Robert's bastards he can find. Gendry becomes one of Winterfell's guards and Arya's sworn shield. He remains a rather poor horsemen though.
Part 2

I’ve found the stuff you’ve talked about as regards fashion in Thedas super interesting! On that note, if there any thoughts you have about things characters would wear or you think would be interesting for them to wear whether of your ocs or of canon characters, I’d be very interested.

put those frenchwomen in hennins (the funky headdresses) right now. i also think they should dress more like this in general tbh like stop doing whatever you’re doing and put a burgundian dress on

Queen Aemma Targaryen of the Seven Kingdoms and her ladies-in-waiting (Laeta Velaryon, Ronnalyn Arryn, Malia Hightower, Amara Martell)
Inspired by @15-lizards ‘s post about Aemma’s fashion influences during her time as queen. All of them wear some variations of a Burgundian gown and hennins, influenced by Aemma’s childhood in the Vale. They have their own personal spin on their outfits, also influenced by their own house histories. For example, Aemma has a triple horned hennin and a v-shaped hennin for the Targaryen dragons. Ronnalyn has a crescent shaped hennin for the moon door. Malia’s hennin is tall and the fabric on her dress resembles bricks because she’s a “high tower.” It’s not subtle but it’s not meant to be. Laeta has more fabric and accessories because she’s richer than the other ladies but it’s not garishly so because she’s not trying to outshine the queen.

Nice thing about being both a fantasy writer and a horrible little HEMA gremlin is that even if you don’t know how to use the specific weapon you’re writing about, you know where to find a manual that’ll tell you.

Sorry if it's obvious, but I admit I'm a bit confused on there being both Dukes of Burgundy and also Counts of Burgundy and what's the difference?
Because the medieval border region between France and the HRE can't ever be straightforward and rational, there was both a Duchy and a County of Burgundy. And to make matters more confusing, they were right next to each other:
Tumblr media
The most significant political difference between them is that the Duchy of Burgundy was part of the Kingdom of France (although they didn't always agree on that) and the County of Burgundy (better known as the Free County or the Franche-Comté) was part of the Holy Roman Empire.
However, and this is an example of how complicated medieval politics could get, both Burgundies were in personal union under the House of Valois-Burgundy, and thus were part of the Burgundian State that Charles the Bold very much wanted to make the core of his revived, independent, and coequal Kingdom of Burgundy. It didn't work out thanks to the Swiss pikemen and the treacherous Hapsburgs, but it came very close to becoming a thing.
