- A woman's gown, 1775-80, English; Striped pink and white silk, Spitalfields, 1770s (en)
- A woman's gown of white silk with textured striped of white and pink. The gown is in the English (tight-back) style, open at the front, with elbow-length sleeves with pleated cuffs. The bodice and sleeves are lined with linen. A square of coarsely woven wool is tacked over the right sleeve seam at the underarm. The bodice has pleated robings to just below the waist. The pleats at the back are stitched down. A waist seam extends from the front edges to either side of the pleats at centre back. The skirt is made of 5 widths of silk, flat-pleated into the waist, with pocket openings at the side seams. The hem is faced with a deep band of white silk.
The gown is heavily pieced - although with no sign of previous folding - suggesting it may have been made over from a previous garment or furnishing, or made from short lengths of the silk.
White cotton tape has been tacked to the inside waist for Museum display. (en)
