Pioneer women tended to dress with more practicality than their more cosmopolitan counterparts in the city. To create an authentic pioneer look, buy or make a full-length maxi skirt that reaches 12 inches (2.55.1cm) above the floor and wear a simple button-down, long-sleeve top to match. For the most historically-accurate style, look for solid, dark colors for both pieces. If you want to get more creative, choose a lighter blue color or an old-fashioned pattern, like flowers or birds, which a pioneer woman might have worn on a special occasion. If you don't have a button-down shirt, a plain long-sleeve or three-quarter-length shirt will work as well. You can pair your skirt with a petticoat if you want, although it's not necessary; pioneer women needed to move around more easily, so they often wore less fabric beneath their skirt than Victorians. Some pioneer women wore corsets, but it wasn't considered as necessary as in the city. If you want to try it, look for a Victorian-style, S-shaped corset, which you can find online. If you're trying a corset for the first time, don't lace it as tightly as you can just yet. Let your body get used to the slight constriction. Lace down about 1 inch (2.5cm) and leave it for about 2 hours. If your body feels OK, lace down another inch; if not, take the corset off and try again tomorrow. Aprons were a must for practical frontier women. Tie one around your waist in a simple white or cream shade, or play with a pattern or color to offset your skirt. Look for a style that comes to about your mid-calves. You can find long aprons online, or make your own by cutting a piece of fabric about 3/4 of the skirt length and the same width around the waist. Gather in the top edge and cinch it down to about half of its length. Sew a ribbon to the top edge of your apron to make a waist tie. Pioneer women typically opted for comfortable, flat-heeled boots that reached to their mid-calf, which allowed for easy movement. Pair them with comfortable knee-length stockings with either a fun or a practical patternthese won't be seen unless you show them off, so have fun with it. You can find leather boots and high stockings in shoe stores and online. or secure it in a bun. Keep your hairstyle simple with a classic low bun, or mix it up by adding braids on the side of your head or around the bun. Create a down-the-middle part for whatever hairstyle you decide to go with. You can also braid your hair simply down your back. For younger girls, two braids is another good option. Complete your pioneer woman look with a practical bonnet, which would've been used to protect from the sun and keep flyaway hairs tamed down. Look online for a simple cloth bonnet that will match the rest of your outfit. You can also tie on a handkerchief or bandana in place of a bonnet, or try making your own by looking up a sewing tutorial online.
