Gondorian Civilians

Check the pictures in the cities around Theoden and the Eowyn as well as other Gondorians to see the background civilians.



Females

(descriptions from the an RotK game demo - thanks to Megan)

The Gondorian women seem to be wearing is an early 13th century get-up, consisting of a tunic-gown and a cyclas (KY-klass), which is sort of like an overtunic. The brocaded cord belts Ngila mentioned ever so long ago are there; the pattern these women have is a crossover forming an 'X' on the back and front. The undergown is a pale yellow, and the cyclas a slate blue, with darker blue cord belts.

There are TWO different styles of dress present on the women, and not just one as I'd thought earlier. The second is /very/ similar to the first, but the cyclas has morphed into a garment with ever-so-slightly capped sleeves and sewn-up sides. Very nearly a full-blown overdress, but quite similar-looking to the first .

Also, around their necks the women wear a sort of cowl scarf. This
appears from what I can tell (I can't get screenshots, so I'm having
to observe all this in motion!) to be a sort of tube that one pulls
over the head and leaves bunched around the neck. This can match
either the colour of the cyclas, or the colour of the undergown/tunic.
(I saw both slate blue and pale yellow.) No whites or creams to be
seen so far. Hair is worn up, braided and coiled; very Romanesque
