“Dressing the Colonial Lady” is a PowerPoint presentation using 18th century portraits, prints, and sketches, as well as photographs of extant clothing to illustrate what women wore from “shifts to shoes”. In addition, a display of various reproduction garments would be available for examination, as well as a number of books on patterns and construction techniques. The goal of the presentation is to acquaint DAR members with a more accurate characterization of our female ancestors’ attire in order to improve their own 18th century wardrobes."
