Irish clothing in 1850 was traditional. The women wore simple dresses made sometimes of wool and animal skins. The poor had clothing made from scraps of fabrics sewn together, and the wealthy could afford whole fabric pieces for a solid pattern. The dresses were long, and sometimes had embellishments or ribbon.
