Looking for a practical new dress for basic, camp or work wear, this Day wrapper may just be what you are looking for.

NO-it is not a wrapper in the sense of a morning robe, but a dress that can be worn either as a basic work dress or when accessorized with a pretty collar and fancy belt can be “dressed up” for the look of a day or better dress. By definition a wrapper was a garment which flows from the shoulders. Our dress features a fully lined bodice with a fitted back and a skirt that has adequate circumference to be worn with or without a hoop skirt. Fabric is pleated at the shoulders giving the garment a wonderful fullness in the bust and waist making it truly adjustable. This fullness is arranged in the front and held in place with a belt, giving the dress a slightly fan-front or gathered bodice look depending on how the fullness is arranged. This loose fitting makes the garment adjustable for maternity wear as well. This style was worn from the 1840’s thru the 1870’s. This outfit would be appropriate for Civil War reenactments as well as other mid 1800’s events such as Dickens or Christmas Fairs, fur trade rendezvous or wagon train (Prairie) events. It would also be a good outfit for historical sites.

This dress is shown with a hoop skirt and a pretty collar and broach. These items are NOT included but are offered in other listings.

This style is very user friendly. It fits comfortably and with the button-front bodice is easy to put on and take off. It does not require understructures such as a corset or working stays to achieve its period look. The only undergarment recommended is a petticoat (we suggest a corded petticoat for ease of movement).

A garment you will always have a use for. The styling allows the dress to adjust to your chosen persona. This garment will serve you well—money well spent. All in all a great addition to your reenacting wardrobe.

Needs to be warmed, but works great for quick face re-application
Style: SPF 50, Size: 1 count (Pack of 1)
I love mineral sunscreen, it really works the best. But I also do not love mineral sunscreen because it's hard to apply. I don't think it matters what you do, they're just always difficult to apply and always leaving the white. This one isn't much different. I'm a scuba diver and my face sunscreen is washed off quickly doing multiple dives. I also get a weird "mask sunburn" if I don't reapply... but since I'm a diver I can't bring myself to buy or wear sunscreen that's not reef safe into the ocean. I was unsure if this would work because it's pretty solid. I threw it in my bag and once the sun warmed it up a little, I was able to apply it fairly easily between dives. I don't think it works unless it's warmed a bit first, but I like it for this purpose.

I Wanted to Like It
Style: SPF 50, Size: 1 count (Pack of 1)
I really wanted to like it because of the great reviews it gets with backpackers and generally with people that don't like "greasy hands syndrome" after applying sunscreen. But after using a stick I found that it's just not that good. The good: small, lightweight container. Not greasy. Good protection, I was in the sun all day hiking multiple days straight and only put on sunscreen twice per day and I didn't have any burning... and I burn easily. The bad: Value: the $12.53 sunscreen container only lasted about 8 days. And that was just my arms, neck, and half my face since I wore a shirt and long pants and a wide brim hat every day when hiking. I would expect this amount of sunscreen to last a lot longer than that on such a limited area. I'm not a big person either. Application, chafing: it's the opposite of greasy, almost chalky. You use the stick to apply to your skin in stripes, then you have to "blend it in" by rubbing with the backs of your hands so your palms don't get chalky. Since the stick is so dry this requires a fair amount of force and it chafes as you rub it around. When your skin a bit sandy it hurts. Application, crumbling: on a chilly but sunny morning, about 45 F, I applied sunscreen and small chunks of the stick crumbled off. I watched precious chunks of the already overpriced sunscreen drop to the ground. Residue: while it's not greasy, it's physical sunblock so it gives your skin the characteristic whitish sparkle. That's to be expected. But what I didn't foresee is it will rub off on anything your skin touches. My gear had white chalk-like marks (technically titania powder?) on my shirt collars, backpack straps, sunglasses, and a few other high-touch items. Overall I think it's a neat idea. I'm not overly disappointed with my purchase. But for $12.50 I expect sunscreen to be easier to apply and for the container to last longer than about 8 days. I can't burn $50/month in the summer months when a single container of chemical sunscreen will do the job. Pro tip: you can buy food-safe 3 oz TSA travel containers. Load one of those up with chemical sunscreen and you have something that beats this in every way except for the greasiness, which you can mitigate by picking a lower SPF sunscreen (the 30 SPF you wear is infinitely better than the 50 SPF you skip!).

Best sunscreen for kids
This is the only sunscreen my son can use. He has very sensitive skin, and can’t use a lot of other sunscreens. This covers great and is a little thicker so you know it’s staying on.
