Clothing

Jocelyn wore clothing with modern style and material. Women’s clothes in Paris during the middle ages were usually ankle-length, with wide sleeves to the elbow, and were slipped on over the head. There were wide bands of bright colours edging the sleeves, hem, and collar line. There may also be woven bands of wool sewn on, or large areas with lots of embroidery.
Jocelyn wore dresses that were more like evening gowns that snugly fit her bodyline. They looked like they were made of silk, which was hard to get during the middle ages.
