Welcome to Dressing History's Online Shop

Here we are able to supply a range of accurate accessories for re-enactors, museums, costume enthusiasts and many other purposes.

Our products range from completed pieces of millinery (prices starting from £40) to the thread with which to sew your own. Many of our items can be produced to order, and to your specific requirements, while others are available for immediate despatch.

We also stock many exciting and hard to find products, such as wide silk ribbons, clocked stockings and our own range of patterns.

If you are looking for complete garments, made using accurate materials and techniques, please see Dressing History, our sister website.
