A hangaroc was an apron-like outer garment worn by women of Norse origins in the 8th, 9th and 10th centuries. In its usual form the hangaroc comprised a woollen or linen tailored tube wrapped around the body under the armpits and suspended by a pair of cloth straps that ran over the shoulders. It hung down to mid-calf. Hangarocs were usually secured by a pair of oval brooches, called "", which are diagnostic of women's graves from the period. Wealthier women would wear their hangaroc decorated with braided wool or embroidery. Wikimedia Commons has media related to Viking costumes.
