Women’s gloves were a part of a Civil War era lady’s outfit.  Ladies of the Civil War Era would wear gloves when going out, for example when going to Sunday church, or going on a visit, or out to a dance.

Civil War Dresses.org is also a good resource to find other 1860’s costume accessories such as Civil War Handbags, Lace Parasols, and Lace Fans.
