Superhero in Skirts
Not all superheroes wear capes… or spandex, for that matter. Take Florence Nightingale, a respectable English woman, she was expected to marry and live the quiet Victorian life of hearth and home. But she followed a calling to serve others and heal the sick and wounded.
With a backstory like that, Nightingale would make a natural comic superhero. She’s got the name, to begin with. She comes from an unlikely background. She’s inspired generations of superhero nurses in the years to come. And she’s even got a sidekick, Nightingale carried around a little owl that she rescued in Greece named Athena!
While we know that wearing an ankle-length dress isn’t typical for saving the day, we think any history buff can make this 19th-century heroine into a superhero no one will forget!
Design & Details
Our creative team designed this costume with history buffs in mind! The high neck and floor-length skirt maintain the modesty that was expected from the gentlewoman nurse in the 1800’s. The dress zips up the back and has a princess-cut bodice. A full white apron secures around the waist with ties and crosses over the back, making you look ready for your patients!
The look is topped off with a white, ruffled cap and a broadcloth band toting a medical cross. As a historical look that’s easy to wear, this costume is great for costume parties, plays, and presentations!
History Buff’s Dream
Whether you’re gracing a themed get-together or showing off your knowledge at a trivia night, this costume says, “I know my stuff, and I dress the part too!” The high neck and floor-grazing skirt whisper tales of a time of the past when nurses were the unsung heroes of the day.
