Is historical re-enactment a form of Cosplay?

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout

Star Wars: The Confederacy Strikes Back

@Longpatrol the return of the Honky

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout : Where you goin', white boy?

@iamelijah : Believe me, cool it ain't! The outer gown is wool and lined. The collar piece is wool. The trews (trousers) are leather. Under that, I am wearing a silken shift, rather like a night-shirt, over a pair of underpants made from linen. The hat is wool and VERY hot!
Both the trews and underpants are made in two pieces which the wearer ties together. Around the outer gown is a belt made from leather from which hangs a money pouch, my eating utensils, and my dagger.

@Longpatrol Correct. A person who actually lived in the 13th Century. I belong to a company that do re-enactments for tourists.

@CharlesRomsey cool, I remember seeing a youtube video on the hat definitely a striking piece of headwear

@SunshineGirl : No. Historical re-enactment at a 13th century house.

@Teggy Thank you!
