Grave of the Marquis de Lafayette

Paris, France

This is an amazing recreation of one of George Washington's uniforms. Princeton Chapter member Dawn Fairchild traveled to the Smithsonian Institute to examine the actual uniform worn by Washington. She painstakingly recreated this uniform using materials and techniques that would have been used in Washington’s own uniform.

A view of the handmade shirt and vest. Every detail was exactly recreated, from the number of buttons on the vest to the style of riding boot worn by Washington.

Dawn Fairchild talks about the process she used in creating this uniform.
