How to dress like Annie Get Your Gun?

You could come as an Indian.

My 7 year old cousin dressed like Annie Oakley for the same occasion. My uncle carved her a wooden rifle that she was allowed to carry with her costume (with permission from the principal). Research clothing from the 1880s and find modern stand-ins or analogues for common accessories. Be creative. It’s the little details that count.

Annie Oakley was my childhood heroine! I wanted to be her so much, I practiced trick shots with my bb gun while riding my bike (no horse, darn it anyway)! I’m guessing that if it’s a school event, you are probably banned from bringing toy guns as accessories?

Jeans, a checkered or solid color shirt with long sleeves, western neckerchief and a cowboy hat. Cowboy boots are too expensive to consider, but if you know someone who could loan you a pair that fit. . . . Have fun. AGYG is a great show.

You could dress up as a steampunk cowgirl type. The victorian/steam age was around then. You could go quite nuts with it. http://www.cosplay.com/photo/2557985/

@cazzie that would actually be really gnarly. A steampunk Annie Oakley would be amazing to see.

You could dress like a horse….
