As with most youth organizations, uniforms were never required for membership in the Camp Fire Girls. However, to achieve the rank of Fire Maker, the ceremonial gown that resembled a Plains Indian woman's dress, was required.

Despite the fact that uniforms were not required, Camp Fire Girls had plenty of official fashion to choose from.

Examples of ceremonial gowns will be added later.

1914 Camp Fire Girls Universal Outing Dress was khaki - this is just one example of several dresses offered in the early years.
