French Clothing 1400s-1500s
Fashion in 15th century Europe is characterized by a series of extremes and extravagances, from the voluminous gowns called houppelandes with their sweeping floor-length sleeves to the revealing doublets. Hats, hoods, and other headdresses assumed increasing importance, and were swagged, draped, jeweled, and feathered.

Herald Montjoy
The French messengerfor the King . He in various occasions encountered with King Henry and in few situations did King Henry express his anger to him.
The French Royals
The Dukes of Berrie and Bertagne of Orleans along with the Dauphin the kings son. In comparison what these royals had in common were that they were blind to see the major issues of France. One being the desperate need of support from troops and the issues caused confusion within France with the addition of the Kings illness. This gave King Henry an advantage to set another attack. The Dauphin underestimated King Henry which turned out to be unwise.
King Charles VI of France (1368-1422)
King Charles a historical figure and former opponent of King Henry V from England. An interuption of his ruling came from the cause of his illness. Charles did not underestimate King Henry, unfortunatley his son the prince(The Dauphin) did. King Charles had lack of support and that led to the attack at Harfleur. France soon began to lose with the outcome of England conquering.
