Authenticity is the hallmark of ITP's custom-made clothing. Using correct fabrics and styles is essential, as is visible workmanship; therefore, machine-made seams or finishes are never seen on garments that represent the pre-sewing machine era. Hidden seams are machine sewn to reduce costs and add durability.
Correct undergarments such as hoops, petticoats, bustles, and pantaloons add appropriate details to each costume.
Handmade bonnets can enrich the experience for both the wearer and the visitors to your site.
