This is a Civil War dress, yet it is pre Civil War (Late 1850s to 1860s) and goes up into the 1870's as more women moved west.
Of the two camp/ work dresses, this one is more dressy. This is made with a waist band. Great for those that work around the camp site
cooking and/ or chasing children. Also good for those back woods camping re-enacting, where as you don't want to wear your hoop are damage or dirty your
fine day dresses. Yet, if you want you can add a hoop and can be ready for evening.
It's made off the shoulder with piping at the edge and followed further down, piping again. the bodice is lined and boned. Comes
with matching or contrast piping on sleeve. Above the breast it's gathered yoke to give full comfort.
Optional; are a piped (collarless) neckline or round peter pan collar. With full sleeves or cuffs. I recommend cuffs for
real wear, due to the fact, that full sleeves tend to get into things, like cooking, fire, etc. Also optional, is with the top being of a solid color and
the bottom a print. Note: put in comment field if your plan on wearing a hoop and the size, for correct sizing of bottom of skirt.
Matching or Contrasting Material Top & Skirt: Both Top and Skirt in the same Material, or contrasting.
Suggest: bonnet, that is on the other page of camp dress and under hoop slip.
Measurements: Fill out Measurement Chart.
