- 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.
