- Description
- Bodice, c.1905. Gold on ivory silk brocade. Formal evening bodice with long sleeves with slight puff, low square neck, and white chiffon ruffle trim. The shoulders on the bodice are spaced wide, forming a V neckline in the back and with sloping down to either side of the bottom centre front. A gathered and slightly puffed inner panel fills in the bottom of the square neckline at the front. The sleeves are lightly gathered at the sleeve caps, tapering down in a fitted sleeve to cuffs at the wrist with three bands of gathered ivory chiffon trim. The same trim is on the neckline and along the front panels to the waist. The waistband is made of a band of the main fabric, with one horizontal pleat running its length. The bodice points down at the centre front. Inside, the bodice is lined with cream silk taffeta and fifteen bones. There is also a label with an embroidered label that reads, "Sarah Fullerton Monteith Young / Mount Street Grosvenor Square." The lining closes at centre front with hooks and eyes, although there are also lacing holes along each side of the closure. The centre front panel folds over this and attaches to hooks and eyes at the right side.

- Description
- Bodice and underskirt, c.1895. Black wool bodice, black silk taffeta underskirt. Black satin trim, leg o' mutton sleeves, standing collar, embroidery on bodice. At the back of the standing collar there is a bow in satin ribbon. At the front of the bodice, there is a section of gathered fabric at either side of the centre front closure decorated with black floral embroidery. At the edge of the right front there is a pleated ruffle of satin ribbon. The embroidered section is also bordered by a satin ribbon on each side. The sleeves are heavily gathered at the sleeve cap, creating large leg o' mutton sleeves. They taper down to the wrists, which also have some of the same embroidery as the centre front bodice, just before the cuffs. The cuffs do not have an opening. At the back of the bodice, there is no decoration. The waistband consists of a twisted satin ribbon with a bow at centre front and centre back. Inside, the bodice is lined with beige linen. It has eight bones one the front and back. The underskirt is made of undecorated lightweight silk taffeta, and may be a petticoat instead of an underskirt. It has a grosgrain waistband with built in stays, five gores, and one dart for shaping. It does not close at its regular opening, but rather folds over to close via a snap further along the waistband.

- Description
- Nursing dress, c.1919. White cotton lawn and lace. Square neckline with large square collar, half length sleeves, and ankle length skirt. Straight natural height waist. A precursor to the 1920s straight shape, the dress has a gathered skirt and a bodice that is straight except for slight shaping via seam placement to create room in the front. The bodice front has a square neckline with a large square collar that extends from three quarters down the bodice and continues around the back of the neck. The collar is fillet lace in a floral pattern, and there is a fillet lace panel on the bodice centre front that extends from the neckline to waistline, and to either collar. The bodice sides and back are plain. Each sleeve is plain cotton, with a large fillet lace cuff that is attached in a semi-spiral to give it a draped effect. The seams on the sleeves are positioned slightly forward, and do not match the side seam position. The skirt hangs gathered from the natural waist. After a band of lawn, there is: a band of fillet lace, lawn with a large tuck, lace, lawn with a tuck, and large section of lawn hemmed up to the last tuck on the inside. Under the skirt, attached at the waistline, there is a built in pair of 'underwear' in soft tulle. There is a space for each leg, and it is open on the front. The tulle 'underwear' closes on the inside with snaps up the centre front, creating a narrower section around the waist. The main skirt closes up the side left with snaps, and along the left waist. The bodice also uses snaps to close along the left side of the fillet lace panel. Shaping in the bodice comes from side seams that angle towards the side back, forcing the front bodice to pouf out in front. There are also pin tucks on the shoulders that release fullness into the bodice, and the shoulder seams are cut further back instead of sitting right on top of the shoulder. The dress is unlined, machine sewn with french seams.

- Description
- Evening dress, c.1929. Black rayon lace with cotton organdy slip. Sleeveless, flounced bodice and skirt. Knee length, dips to a longer hemline in the back. The dress is cut in the flapper style, but with 1930s style flounces. It is entirely made out of black rayon machine lace, with an organdy slip underneath. Hanging from the neckline there is a lace flounce with scalloped edge, overtop of the main lace dress. It hangs over the chest area in the front; at the back, it is tacked onto the dress underneath and comes down in a V shape. At a dropped waist height, where the V shape ends, the skirt of the main dress is another flounce. It ends at knee height in the front, and scoops down to calf length in the back. The slip attaches at the shoulders with a small strap that wraps around the shoulder at its seam and snaps back onto itself. At the bottom, there is a layer of lace sewn on to it that hangs a few inches past the slip hem. It comes up higher at the front, in a triangle shape.

- Description
- Lace dress, c.1930. Black acetate machine lace. Short butterfly sleeves, calf length, flounce on right side. The dress is entirely made of black acetate machine lace in a floral pattern. It was meant to go over another dress, as it is very transparent. The neckline is round, and the shoulders are connected at a small section before splitting into the butterfly sleeves that were so popular in the 1930s. The dress flares out slightly, more so at the bottom, and ends at approximately calf length. Running down the front right side of the dress, from just under the shoulder to the hem, is a large triangular flounce. It has a triangular scalloped bottom edge.

- Description
- Dress, c.1925-1929. Green silk chiffon. Sleeveless, straight cut, round neckline, scarf attached at right shoulder, dropped waist with skirt flounces, knee length. At each shoulder, there are five pin tucks, and at the right front shoulder there is a wide scarf as long as the dress that could be worn in a number of ways. At the dropped waist there is some very slight gathering in the bodice. The skirt has a plain inner layer and an outer layer that attaches to the back a few inches below the waistline. On the left front, the over skirt angles slightly downwards as it is attached to the side front. It is attached to the under skirt until it reaches just past the centre front; here it is cut and tacked down along the bias, draping straight down from that point in a flounce. At the right, the over skirt comes across the front for a few inches, then the top edge is turned down at a forty five degree angle and sewn in place. The rectangular piece of fabric would have been able to connect to the left seam, but instead it hangs draped on the left.

- Description
- Dress, c.1925-1929. Green silk chiffon. Straight cut, button trim, lace collar and cuffs with embroidery, long sleeves, yoke above pleated and ruched knee length skirt. This dress is good example of the ever shorter and more transparent clothing that was being worn by rebellious young women toward the end of the 1920s. The round neckline has a rolled collar of beige lace that ends a few inches over the shoulders. At the front, it has abstract floral embroidery in blue, green, pink, and black. At the centre front of the neckline there is a bound slit with three self bound round buttons on either side. They close with thread loops from the right side that go around each left button. The sleeves flare out slightly into a bishop sleeve gathered to the cuff. They have the same type of embroidered lace on the cuff as on the collar. At the centre front of the bodice, there is a rectangular panel appliquéd with gold top stitching. Directly beneath, there is a yoke that circles around the back and comes up to a point at centre front. On either side of a dropped waist, there is a vertical row of three self covered round buttons with three thread eyes, creating a small fold in the fabric. The skirt is a plain tube with a front and back panel, and another panel that hangs on top extending to the side backs. This top panel is ruched with three lines of gathering at the centre front, and it is permanently pleated on either side of the ruching to the side backs. The ruched panel dips down slightly in a curve, and the whole panel is finished with a zig-zag stitch.

- Description
- Bodice, c.1902-1903. Black net with silver thread, black velvet, and and black embroidery, white silk under layer. Three quarter length sleeves, high collar, pouter pigeon. The high standing collar has four stays to keep it upright. It has an under-layer of white silk, and an over-layer of embroidered net like the rest of the bodice. At the neckline and shoulders, the net is gathered and pleated, as well as at the waistband, so if will puff out. At the centre front of the bodice there is a floral motif in black thread, and that is surrounded by tendrils of silver metal thread embroidery, with loops filled in with black velvet. At the back of the bodice, there is silver and velvet embroidery at the top near the shoulders. Beneath, there is floral embroidery in black thread. The embroidered net on the sleeves is gathered at the top and sides of the armscye, and at the cuff. There are two ball buttons at the cuff covered in metallic tulle, and the cuff itself has two layers of gathered net ruffle; the outside layer is black and the inside is white. The bottom of the bodice has a round shape in the back, and curves downwards to the centre front. It has a heavy waistband made of eleven silver metal cords attached as a flat ribbon. There are two buttons on either side of the centre back closure, the same type as on the cuffs. Inside, the bodice is lined in white cotton. It has nine bones and a centre back closure of hooks and eyes, with a separate set for the lining and the outer fabric.

- Description
- Day dress, c. 1919. White cotton buratto lace. Mid-calf length, round neck, quarter length sleeves. This dress echoes the 1910s with its lace, natural waistline, and slightly poufed front; however, it also looks toward the 1920s with its straight cut and minimal shaping. The bodice has a row of embroidery going vertically down each side front. There is a scalloped closure on left front, which opens with a double row of snaps. On the bodice back, the two embroidery panels come together in a stepped V pattern, and the rest of the back is embroidered. Shaping in the bodice comes from side seams that angle toward the side back, creating more volume in the bodice front. The shoulder seams are also cut further back instead of sitting right on top of the shoulder. Each sleeve extends out of the bodice in kimono style, banded at the upper arm with a band of thicker weave and heavier weight white cotton fabric. Beneath this, the waistband pattern can be seen again: a band of embroidery bordered by lace. At the bottom of each sleeve there is one more band of lace. The waistline comes straight down from the square bodice; it consists of an embroidered panel bordered horizontally by two bands of lace. The bottom lace band is reinforced by a cotton tape on the inside. Gathered at the waist, the skirt has no other shaping. It is unadorned for the first two thirds, and then embroidery gradually reaches a scalloped lace hem. The dress is made almost entirely of buratto lace, which uses a foundation of twined weave fabric with the threads uniformly loose to produce a net-like base for embroidery. It is machine sewn, mainly with french seams, and unlined.

- Description
- Wedding dress bodice, c.1900. Green silk taffeta. Trimmed with black lace and green bows. Standing collar, leg o' mutton sleeves, small puff at front, shirring at waist. The bodice has a standing collar covered in black lace, and a flounce of the same lace going down each side front. The shoulders are shirred with a self fabric bow at the front of each shoulder. The sleeves are heavily gathered at the armscye to create a puff at the shoulders, which tapers down to a fitted width at the wrist. There is no cuff, but there is a small slit so that the wearer's hand can fit through. The bodice has a box pleat at either side of centre front and one at centre back; each connects to the shirring at waist level, which extends as far as the pleats on both front and back. Beneath this, the bodice flares out as a peplum and ends at the hips. Inside, the bodice is lined in brown cotton. An inner lining closes at centre front with hooks and eyes, and the front of the bodice (which is lined itself) closes with hooks and thread eyes at the left side. This continues up to the shoulder, and the collar closes at centre back.
