"I'll Wear My Delaine." Laura Keyes Returns for Caroline Ingalls' Delaine Dress and Pioneer Women's Underwear

What is a peplum — and could you have worn one in the 1980s? How many undergarments might a woman wear in the nineteenth century? What kind of a dress was Ma's delaine? How fashionable was Caroline Ingalls? Does the dress she wore in Little House in the Big Woods show up in other books in the Little House® series? Answers to these questions and more in tomorrow's episode of Land of Laura, when historic interpreter Laura Keyes (from Historic Voices) returns as promised to talk about Ma's delaine dress, as well as providing a detailed primer on pioneer ladies' underwear.
