“This silk dress has a standing lace collar as well as a lace yoke. There is floral applique on the center front and on the back of the boned bodice as well as on the sleeve cuffs. There is also ruching at the center front of the bodice and on the sleeves. The full sleeves are gathered at the shoulders and have velvet trim and lace trim at the cuffs. There are gathers at the waist and cartridge pleats and ruffles at the skirt hem. Features that indicate this dress is from the late 19th century are the hourglass silhouette, the monobosom, and the boned bodice.”
