Need some guidance.

[Charlotte]

Hello ladies,
I'm interested in purchasing a camp dress for reenacting and need some guidance to online to suggested online dressmakers. I've found one called www.ushist.com and wanted to know what you all think. I'm limited on time at the machine so I'm buying my stuff.

Charlotte, check out our reenactor's forum and this forum for threads that have suggestions on good dressmakers and historical accuracy. There is a ton of good advice. As Ole says, just ask and someone will know.

Aha. Here's one I was thinking of....there are others.

We have a member, her username is Zylphy, who does that. Haven't seen any posts from her in a few weeks, you might send her a Private Message...just a thought.

Hannah does as well. You can always check out the names of people who've posted things/sources you like and message them. We're a great group for sharing.

Are you looking to buy a ready-made or custom-made dress?

 

[Hannah]

I'd be happy to try to help. If you're interested in a custom dress I will help you out if you wish. Please feel free to send me a PM.

If I can't help I'll try to point you in the direction of someone who can.

A number of lady members make their own dresses and a few make some for sale. Nathanb said it right. Cruise through this form and the reenactors forum for a day or two and you'll find plenty of ways to get an appropriate dress.
