- Description
- Dress, c.1910. Black satin silk, ivory lace yoke. High collar, three quarter length sleeves, black lace, embroidery, and ruffle trim, floor length with an overskirt. The high lace collar has stays, and it continues into a yoke on the front and back. The centre front and back bodice beneath this have gathered panels, in a V shape on the back. Beneath this on the front, there are two rectangles joined by a faggoting stitch. On either side there are four round black velvet buttons, and on either side of that there is a black ruffle that extends over the shoulders to the back waist. Attached to the ruffle is a band of black lace, and on centre front below the rectangles there is a large appliquéd piece of black embroidered lace. The sleeves are fairly fitted. They are ruched and taper down to a slightly more fitted cuff, edged with gathered ribbon and a band of lace. The waist is at natural height, without any cinching. It is defined by a black ruffle on either side and a band of lace at the front and back. At centre back there is a black appliqué that is the same as the one on top of the waist at centre front. There are also three pin tucks at either side of the centre back, extending from the appliqué on the overskirt. At the centre front of the overskirt, there is a black ruffle that extends to its hem. At the hem, the ruffle curves down on either side front and angles into two square shapes at either side back. The underskirt has six gores; at calf level, the main dress fabric is attached. The bodice closes up the centre back with hooks and eyes. Beneath there is also a lining that closes separately with hooks and eyes at the centre back. It has seven featherbones encircling the top of the waist. The overskirt, underskirt, and waistband close separately with hooks and eyes at the back left.

- Description
- Dress, c.1884. Beige silk taffeta and ivory silk floral brocade, mauve trim. Bodice with low square neck, half length sleeves with ruffle cuffs. Skirt with train, drapery around hips, ruffles down front. Trousseau for wedding. The bodice is made of beige taffeta, lined with white silk twill sewn together with the main fabric. It has a low square neckline. Its half length sleeves are attached at the armscye with a corded seam, and at the cuff they have a large pleated ruffle in mauve silk taffeta lined with the same fabric as the skirt. Besides this, there is no decoration on the bodice (it is noted in the accession file that the trim is missing from the bodice). Shaping comes from two darts on either side front and six panels in the back. There is boning in each dart and one in each side seam. The bodice extends to the hips, cinching in at the waist. At the centre back of the waist there is a white silk ribbon the extends to the left, and may have also been on the right as well originally. It closes at centre front with hooks and eyes. The skirt is made of ivory brocade with a sparse pattern of small pink floral bouquets. It has a grosgrain waistband that closes with two hooks and eyes at centre back. The opening in the skirt below does not have any closures. There are six gores, all sewn together with the cotton voile lining except for the centre front seam. At the top of the skirt there is a section of drapery (also lined in cotton voile) that circles around the hips to the side backs. It is ruched at centre front in three vertical lines. Under the drapery on the right side, there is a pocket with a cotton twill bag inserted into the seam. The skirt is heavily pleated at the back, where there is also a long train. The front or the skirt, extending to the front two gores, has a thin band of mauve ribbon right under the top drapery. Regularly spaced down the front of the skirt there are two rows of mauve pleated ruffles, like those on the bodice cuffs. At the hem there is another pleated ruffle that runs its whole length, made of the main dress fabric. The bodice is entirely hand sewn. The straight seams on the skirt are sewn with a chain stitch machine, and the rest is done by hand. The seams are finished with whip-stitching where the selvedge is not used.
