Colonial Girl Costume

This beautiful costume covers the entire historical period from 1600 to 1800, and will work well for Halloween, school plays, July 4th celebration, and even Thanksgiving. This colonial girl costume includes a black blouse trimmed with peplum lace, and a full length matching skirt. Young girls, during this period of time, continued to wear clothing that was generally a smaller version of the adult clothing, and some often said they were miniature women.

The colonial girl costume was trimmed much more simply than a woman’s, and they usually wore back fastening gowns. The young girls skirt was not split down the front like the woman’s was and there would be a few more minor differences. Also, the young girls didn’t wear bedgowns or jackets that were always worn by the women.

The colonial girl costume depicted here is a two piece ensemble with the peplum lace trim covering the elastic skirt waist. The costume comes in kids sizes Small, Medium, Large, and Extra Large, and can be worn for a variety of themed events. Buy a colonial girl costume for that special someone one now while supplies last.
