In case you’re still stumped, here are some period costume resources:
Thelma Martin, Mansfield Missouri – (417) 924-3093 – Thelma will happily tailor a woman’s dress or man’s shirt in early Ozarks period style just for you. You can provide the material, or she will obtain it. We hear that Thelma’s rates are extremely reasonable with fast turn-around time. You can call her for more details.
The Costume Shop, Branson, Missouri – (417) 338-8231. – Tamara Watkins tells us that they have many “retired” period dresses for sale, some at rock-bottom prices. She also has some vests for men. She suggests calling to discuss your needs.
But you really don’t have to spend any money at all. In fact, as the links below show, you may already have your costume in your closet!
