John Rackam was known to wear clothing made out of a cotton woven fabric called calico. He stood out (as many pirate captains and officers did for wearing unusual and gaudy clothes) because the calico garments he wore tended to be colorful and flamboyant.
Calico fabric was popular during the 1800's. It was a common cotton fabric often known as being used by the pioneers. It is referenced in the "Little House on the Prairie" books as being used for dresses for the girls. Today it is used for quilting and other homemaking crafts.

Reoccurring modes of dress for women in the 1800's were bustles, corsets (called "stays" in the early part of the century), petticoats, hoops, pantalets, floor-length dresses for women who had reached puberty. Most undergarments were made of muslin (sometimes silk or more expensive fabric for people who could afford them) and outer clothes were made from calico, lindsey-woolsey, wool and other durable, cheap fabrics that the working class could afford. Of course, those who enjoyed a more comfortable station in life had finer clothes made from finer materials.
In "Pioneer Girl," dresses were commonly made from sturdy materials such as calico, muslin, and wool. Calico, a cotton fabric printed with colorful patterns, was popular for everyday wear, while muslin provided a lightweight option for warmer weather. Wool was often used for outer layers and winter clothing due to its warmth and durability. These materials were practical for the challenges of pioneer life, allowing for both comfort and functionality.
