Mrs. Macready
It looks like the Macready has one outfit. They could be two separate
sets of clothes, worn at different times, but it's possible she
wears the coat over the off-white dress.
When Mrs. Macready picks the children up from the train station,
she wears a tan jacket with notched lapel and buttoned sleeves.
The fabric looks like it has a thin stripe pattern. She wears black
gloves and a scarf, tucked under the jacket. Her hair is worn in
a tight bun, topped with a brown hat.
The off-white skirt could be worn later without jacket, seen as
an off-white cotton dress. It appears to be a light print. A belt
slips through a loop in the center front waist, possibly of the
same fabric. Three large red buttons go up the front of the bodice,
below a wide, pointed flat collar. The length seems to be mid-calf.
Over that she wears a rather worn-looking brown button-up sweater,
with a large patch for a pocket, with eleven or twelve buttons.
Our guess is she wears the dress under the jacket when out and
about in the cart, and dons the sweater in the house.
