About our Executive Director:
Gigi Coulson is a sociologist, author, and living historian whose independent research focuses on the Italian Peninsula and British Isles. She studies and teaches about historical women’s lives, dress, accessories, and other aspects of material culture. In 2023, Gigi founded Costumers of Color Inc., a 501(c)(3) nonprofit to promote inclusion and belonging for People of Color (POC) in historical costuming and public history.
She considers herself a cultural historian specializing in early modern women’s studies and clothing. Her training spans art history, history of science, literature, and material culture studies, so she aims to approach objects from interdisciplinary perspectives.
