Getting Dressed for Snowy Weather in the 18th Century

This ensemble is intended to portray a British or British North American working class or middling persona in the late 1760s or 1770s. Obviously, winter wear and fashion generally in the 18th century differed vastly by region, culture, and position in society. Feel free to comment below if you have any questions, and I will do my best to answer them or refer you to other resources that might have an answer.

Also, wearing this gown made me realize that it's time to update it to fit better and to reflect my current skill level. Let me know if you'd be interested in a video about remodeling and refitting that gown!
