American Civil War Era Dress









From the seller:

A fetching 1860’s Civil War era cotton print dress. The fabric has a bizarre pattern done in shades of brown and light orange. The bodice is lined with linen and has a front button closure. The neckline is piped. The skirt is attached to the waist with cartridge pleating.

The skirt is unlined except for a band of printed cotton at the edge of the hemline. The dress is in very good and sturdy condition. There is no underarm discoloration. There is one small pea size hole at the edge of the skirt and a couple of other tiny pencil tip size holes in the skirt. Bust 32 Waist 26 Skirt length 37 Width at hemline 120.


From Me:

I really like the hem lining fabric. Seriously, I want a Civil War dress made out of that!
