Fashion that was in vogue in the East was highly desirable to
pioneers during the frontier period of the American West. It was
also extraordinarily difficult to obtain, often impractical, and
sometimes the clothing was just not durable enough for the men and
women who were forging new homes for themselves in the West. Full
hoopskirts were of little use in a soddy on the prairie, and chaps
and spurs were a vital part of the cowboy's equipment.
In this book, author Chris Enss examines the fashion that shaped
the frontier through short essays; brief clips from letters,
magazines, and other period sources; and period illustrations
demonstrating the sometimes bizarre, often beautiful, and
frequently highly inventive ways of dressing oneself in the Old
West.
