- A woman's gown and remnants of a petticoat of pink-purple shot silk, embroidered with alternating floral sprigs in pink and green. The gown is open at the front with shaped, elbow-length sleeves. The bodice meets at centre front. The bodice and skirt are cut separately and stitched together at the waist. The back is made of 4 shaped pieces, tapering to a point at centre back below the waist. The bodice fronts and side back pieces, and centre back pieces are lined separately with linen, and stitched together; the sleeeves are also lined with linen. Stitching forms a casing for a bone from waist to mid-back at the centre back. Stitching in the front bodice lining below the neckline forms a casing for narrow linen tape drawstrings. The skirt is made of 5 widths of silk, finely flat-pleated into the waist.
The gown may have originally been made with a petticoat. The gown skirt is heavily pieced; it was possibly made over from an earlier gown, or the skirt replaced with parts from the petticoat. There are 9 remaining pieces; Part F is a short-waisted bodice front and back, Parts B and C are elbow-length sleeves.
In the late 19th century, the gown was altered for fancy dress. Boning was added to the bodice fronts, along with hooks and thread bars for fastening. The four linen tapes at the waist and four on the skirt, for looping it up, were probably added at this time. A triangular gore of silk has been unpicked from each skirt front. The right drawstring at the neck was replaced. A pocket was sewn into the left pocket opening and the right pocket opening was sewn up. (en)
