Moravian Mornings

A Living Historian on Moravian Clothing


Listen Later

Jacob Crews is a living historian who has been researching Moravian clothing for four years, and he participates in living history events at historic sites such as Historic Bethabara Park and Fort Dobbs. Crews joins Maizie and Casey to discuss some of the history behind the Moravians’ clothing choices between the 1700s to early 1800s. How was their clothing unique? What was the typical Moravian wear like for men and women? Was their clothing practical? Jacob answers these questions and more.

 

*Jacob later got in contact to say that greatcoats are actually fitted.*
