Plague Doctor Costume
The plague doctor is probably the most iconic figure of the Black Death. These physicians wore beak-like masks filled with herbs and flowers to protect from miasma, the noxious air believed to spread disease. The outfit was meant to frighten rather than comfort the dying, and consisted of a long cloak, a wide-brimmed hat, a cane and an ivory or wooden mask carved in the shape of a bird’s beak. The mask had glass holes for eyes, and it was stuffed with sweet spices and herbs like juniper, lavender and roses, which were thought to purify the air.

The Plague Doctor Costume: How to Make Your Own Plague Doctor Mask, Hat and Costume
The plague doctor costume is one of the most recognizable costumes of the Middle Ages, though it was also used in the 17th century. The beak mask has become one of the enduring symbols of the Black Death.
The plague doctor costume consisted of an ankle length overcoat and a bird-like beak mask, often filled with sweet or strong smelling substances (commonly lavender), along with gloves, boots, a wide-brimmed hat, and an outer over-clothing garment. The garments were invented by Charles de Lorme. The costume was worn by a special medical physician who treated those who had the plague.
The plague doctor costume is one of the most recognizable costumes, worn by medical practitioners in Europe during times of plague. This costume was worn to protect doctors from being infected by their patients. It consists of a mask, a heavy black cloak, and a cane.
The beak mask was designed to hold scented substances the doctor believed would prevent him from catching the disease. However, it did not work in preventing doctors from catching the plague. The long black cloak protected the doctor’s clothes and body from any diseases that could have been on the clothing or bodies of those they treated. Lastly, the cane was used to examine patients without having any direct contact with them.
