What People Wore During the Civil War

by Allison Stark Draper

Clothing was strictly defined in America in the 1860s. Whether you were a slave, a rich Southerner, a poor Northerner, or a farmer defined what and how you wore your clothes. These distinctions were deepened by the taking of the blue and the gray by the respective sides in the Civil War. Students will learn about the turbulent politics of this time in our history through the lens of the clothing styles and statements of the time.
