My sashes have come a long way, as the saying goes, since those first marches. Aside from matching face masks, sashes are still all I sell - but the variety is endless depending on what my customers need.

They’re a reproduction of the sashes worn by supporters of the suffrage movement of the early 20th century. My most popular sash has the traditional colors of the (American) National Woman’s Party: purple, white and gold. (As stated by the Congressional Union for Woman Suffrage: "Purple is the color of loyalty, constancy to purpose, unswerving steadfastness to a cause. White, the emblem of purity, symbolizes the quality of our purpose; and gold, the color of light and life, is as the torch that guides our purpose, pure and unswerving.")

I also offer two British color schemes. One carries the colors of the “suffragettes” in the Women’s Social and Political Union (WSPU), purple, white and green. This group is more famous today for its association with the Pankhursts and its militant methods. The other group are the “suffragists” of the National Union of Women’s Suffrage Societies (NUWSS), who wore red, white and green. They took a more peaceful tack and allowed men into their groups.

I’ve made some non-historical themed sashes, such as reproductions of the sashes I made for the Broadway musical Suffs; or those that match the suffragette sashes seen in Mary Poppins; or those for the Costumers for Climate Action movement (blue, white and green); or the classic red, white and blue; or other combinations.

I also offer sashes from which 50 percent of profits go to charity:
