    1. The ultimate Norse-inspired garment in the HolyClothing Viking collection, Astra is a hooded tunic dress that lends itself well to daily wear and as part of a festival costume. You could wear your new Astra in the city center as easily as you could wear it to a Renn Faire or fantasy LARP game. It's incredibly detailed; from the Norse compass Vegsivir to the runes that adorn the cuffline of each sleeve.

    2. Celebrate the heritage of your Viking LARP character, honor the Viking culture, or wear a statement piece that will surely catch the eye of other people passing by you. Did you know that the Vegsivir, or "Wayfinder", has been around since at least 874CE? Those who settled in Iceland brought the old Norse faith with them that year, but the symbol likely pre-dated this time.

    3. Immerse yourself in the atmosphere of your local Viking Festival by drinking from your favorite horn as the day fades into its twilight hours. Make friends with other festival-goers who have a great love for all things Viking and Norse. Enjoy the comforts of your new Astra hooded tunic dress, with its soft fabric and warm design.

Huntress Ready

I finally used this piece at a Renaissance festival that was Fantasy-themed. I felt confident, comfortable, and pleased with the feel and look of the outfit. It all functions well. I look forward to the next festival or gathering to cosplay.

Great fit, lovely material

Everything about this top is exactly as advertised. Fits very well (I'm a 36D bust with very broad shoulders and fit the medium) so I would say, unless you don't like your clothing fitted and prefer it loose, stick with your "true size". The material definitely needs to be pressed after washing (I hang dry my clothes) but I love how flowy the material is. And the construction is beautiful and very sturdy, I can actually use the corset lacing in the back without being afraid of tearing the seams of the dress or popping the eyelets of the lacing out. I wish I had one of these in every colour. (Little side note... The vegvisir is an 18th century symbol from an Icelandic grimmorie - but a very similar symbol, the Aegishjalmur, is one mentioned in ancient lore!)

Love This Top!

I was a bit apprehensive about this top as it was the first item i'd ordered from HC that had long fitted sleeves (i Have quite broad upper arms), but it turns out i had nothing to worry about, after a few washes the arms still fit and though snug, aren't tight and my movement isn't affected at all. I love the vegvisir embroidery and what it symbolises, i think the size and placement of the embroidery on the top is perfect. I absolutely love the fabric, colour and construction of this top, the seams are placed so nicely and the whole top is very complementary of my figure. This top is the type that can easily be worn as a top or a dress as it's quite long, so there are so many options for styling it which i love! I'm 5ft3, 38 bust, 30 waist, 39 hips and always get a size M as it the fit is spot on even after any shrinkage from washing.
