Pinstripe WWI Dress

Our WWI nurses dresses have been VERY popular over the past few years and this one is headed to a lovely couple in England. I had just enough time to snap this quick photo before I packed it up for its journey across the ocean!

This dress is made of durable blue cotton pinstripe- a fabric I found at a vintage sale. It created a uniform with the added element of texture- and its truly one of a kind! I will not be able to replicate this one as there was just enough pinstriped cotton to make this dress! Enjoy!

About Susan

Hi! My name is Susan and I am a historian, seamstress, teacher, mother, and wife. My passion for history has manifested itself in the art of recreating clothing from different periods of time. Growing up in the American South, I am heavily schooled in the art of recreating clothing from the 19th century. After nearly a decade of immersing myself primarily in the Victorian period, I found the need to branch out and explore other periods of time. However, it is my connection with the American South and the clothing of rural America that continues to be the driving force behind my designs.
