Mid-Late 19th century Appalachian work dresses

We made 3 of our Work Woman dresses for Cordell Hull Birthplace State Park for their Heritage Day festival. Each was made in three distinctively different fabrics. The cut and fit of our Work Woman dress makes it both versatile and flattering for any impression!

About Susan

My interest in historical costume began at a very early age. I knew by age 5 I wanted to be a designer. Over the years I have been fortunate enough to turn my passion into a full time business. You can find my costumes onstage in NYC, on the big screen, and in museums around the globe.
