Girl's Dress
c.1885
United States
This is an example of a very typical girl's party dress for the period. Alternating stripes of sheer material was a prominent configuration at the time for both women's and girl's dresses. It is obvious that this dress was made with a great deal of detail and thought, which can be seen in the double ruffles of the underdress sleeves as well as the overdress sleeves, and the multiple ruffles of the skirt and the underskirt. The low bustle effect in back is appropriate for a young girl, and the long-waisted silhouette was typical of the time. The interior ties of the skirt create more of a bustle effect.

New piece! Am calling her “Skör” (fragile in Swedish).
Assembled from strips of lace, a doily, and some fiddly needle lace and crochet for the teeth. Starched with diluted wood glue.
Perfect in time for Halloween!
