- Description
- Bodice and skirt, c.1864-1870. Brown silk taffeta with white checked pattern. Small standing collar, sloping shoulders, long sleeves with ruffle, black buttons down centre front, polonaise attachment at the back. Skirt has elastic waistband, and equal volume all around. Ruffle trim around hem. Hand sewn.
- Object History
- The dress is reported to have been worn by the donor's aunt, Sarah Ellen Thompson, who was born in 1872 which would suggest this is an 1880s bustle dress. However, the short straight waist, sloping shoulders, wide sleeves, piped seams and light boning placed in the darts suggest an earlier date of 1860s or early 1870s. The polonaise is tacked on to the back, instead of a continuation of the bodice, and the skirt does not look like the late bustle period. Likely made in early bustle period of the late 1860s-early 1870s. Elsewhere in the file, it is reported the donor got the dress from a friend, not from her aunt.

It has a pleated ruffle at the top and a waistband reinforced with a large grosgrain ribbon on the inside. The centre back and centre front are pleated from the waist to hem, the pleats sewn down to the end of the hips. Each side is trimmed with buttons spaced evenly from the waist to hem. The skirt closes at the right side back with slide snaps and hooks and eyes on the grosgrain.

The skirt has a lace top layer and a white china silk lining that is attached at the small waistband. There are tiny pin tucks in the lace layer at the waistband.

- Wedding dress, c.1909-1910. White cotton crepe with hand embroidery. Short bodice with pin tucks, slight pouf, and three quarter sleeves. Pleated ankle length column skirt. The bodice has a small lace edged V neck, and three pin tucks on each shoulder. Two of the pin tucks angle inwards and continue to the waistline. Between the tucks the bodice is covered with hand worked floral and ribbon themed embroidery. It is gathered at the waistband, creating a slight puff reminiscent of the recently out of fashion pouter pigeon bodice. The back of the bodice has three vertical pin tucks that extend from the shoulder to the waistband on either side of the centre back button closure, with thread covered buttons. There is a slight gather between the pin tucks and side back seams, from the panel under each arm. The sleeves are three quarters in length. They have turned up cuffs topped with embroidery and edged with the same lace as seen on the collar. The skirt has a sailor front opening with six thread covered buttons on either side of a centre front panel. Just past hip level, there are two accordion pleats on either side of the panel. There is a gore on each side and one on the back that flare out slightly; each has the floral and ribbon embroidery. On the back gore, there is a pleat on either side at calf level. The hem is ankle length.

- Description
- Dress with bolero jacket, c. 1930s. Black cotton lace with black silk chiffon slip. Sleeveless, low draped back, ankle length slightly flared at the bottom. Long sleeved lace bolero with metal brooch clasp. The dress has a round neckline in front that drapes into a deep V in the back. There is a magnet at the centre front of the neckline to hold up the metal clasp of the bolero. The bodice attaches at a fairly high waistline. At the front of the skirt, there is are two triangular sections that make up the top section; on the back, there is one triangular piece cut into the top section of the skirt. The rest of it is cut as a front and back section, with a slight flare at the bottom. The slip is cut differently, and may not be the original that went with the dress since it lacks the corresponding shoulder snaps. Each shoulder strap has five rows of smocking on the top. They meet at a triangle shape with gathering under the breasts, and at the back at the waistline in the same way as the dress. The skirt hangs in six gores which also flare out somewhat at the bottom. It is somewhat longer than the dress, visible at the bottom for several inches. The seams are unfinished. The bolero is long sleeved, gathered to cuffs at the wrist, with purposeful large holes at each underarm. It has two darts at the bottom back, and a triangular shape hangs down from the centre back neckline. The front angles down to points from each shoulder, where there is a silver metal brooch clasp with clear rhinestones. It is held up with the magnet in the dress, which gives the bolero front a draped affect.

The overskirt is cut as a circle skirt from one piece of cotton alencon lace. It is gathered in the back. The only seam is at centre back, extending from the opening at the waistband with hooks and eyes to the hem. There is a small train. The underskirt is made from cotton and silk crepe.

At the centre back seam, the fabric comes together on the bias. The fabric is decorated with diagonal pin tucks that have been aligned to create chevrons down the centre front and horizontal lines along the back. There are also cut out lace inserts forming three lines down centre front (separating the two front gores) and in two rings that circle the skirt and angle upwards at the back. At the bottom of the skirt, there are two rows of scalloped tucks. Underneath, there is a separate cotton lining that is tacked to the main skirt.
