expanding on the last post: What The Crimson Peak Costumes Are Made Of (I Think)
Lucille:
Blood Drop Dress (red party dress)- silk taffeta
Black dress- silk-velvet bodice and overskirt, silk taffeta underskirt
Blue dress- see above
Winter coat- wool
Robe and nightgown- silk habotai/china silk with a silk moire sash (moire pattern only visible in one BTS pic I've found so far)
Deleted scene undergarments- cotton sateen corset (I hope, given the wear to it), matching silk taffeta petticoat
Edith:
Buffalo Bookworm Suit (suit for her publisher's office)- silk taffeta
Park outfit- pleated silk habotai shirtwaist, silk taffeta skirt, belt likely a celluloid faux buckle and wool braid strap in-story and resin faux buckle + synthetic braid strap IRL
Carter's Office outfit- see above, just a different shirtwaist and with a silk tie
Buffalo nightwear set- cotton nightgown under a silk-velvet robe
Ball gown- silk satin with some sort of tulle underskirt briefly visible near the beginning and end of her dance scene
Heartbreak Dress (dinner party dress)- pleated lightweight silk, possibly habotai? but heavier than the fabric of her shirtwaists
Buffalo coat- wool
mourning dress- silk taffeta (the designer claims this is her wedding gown, but bereaved brides were HEAVILY pressured to leave off mourning on their wedding days, and I can't imagine the wedding and Carter's funeral would be on the same date anyway)
Allerdale coat- wool
Briefly-seen lingerie and net dressing gown- cotton or linen combinations which later appear in the sex scene, cotton sateen corset, dressing gown of what I imagine is crocheted silk cord + silk habotai
Nancy Drew Dress (canary-yellow dress)- silk satin
Allerdale nightwear set- silk satin robe with a pleated silk habotai nightgown underneath
Allerdale cape- wool
Thomas
Pretty much all of his outfits are wool suits over silk brocade waistcoats and linen shirts. with the exception of his formal outfit for the ball and dinner party, which appears to have a cotton shirt, white vest of a material I can't quite make out, and silk bow tie

The elderly woman Barbie shares a smile with is not Barbara Handler, but in fact costume designer, Ann Roth.
Ann Roth has had a long career as the costume designer for a wide range of movies, including one of my favorites, Mamma Mia!
