Handmade Crocheted Wide Cotton Collar, White, Black or Cream, Detachable

Handmade cotton crocheted collar is designed to cover a round neckline. This collar is 3 inches wide and extends to your choice of length.  The collar is intended to be joined at the center front with a suitable broach, which can also attach the collar to the front of your dress. The collar is made of 100% cotton thread using a period appropriate pattern and may be washed in warm water and laid flat to dry. The pretty lacy look of this collar makes it the perfect complement to your wardrobe.

Whether you choose a simple solid cotton for work or every day wear or a pretty crocheted version for a lightly dressier look, collars offer an easy and unique way to change the look of your outfit. Regardless of age, social status, your economic conditions or where you resided in the country, collars were an essential part of every ladies wardrobe.
With the number of examples and patterns in the period publications as well as examination of existing period photos (CDV’s) it is safe to say that crocheted collars were very popular.

This collar is shown with a pretty broach that is NOT included in this listing.
