  • A woman's <i>robe à la francaise</i> (sack) and petticoat of cream silk satin tamboured with silk twist and silk chenille in multi-coloured floral sprigs. The sack is open at the front with elbow-length sleeves and double, scalloped sleeve ruffles. The bodice fronts meet in the centre. There are two, double box pleats, stitched at the neck line, extending into a train at the back. A waistseam runs from front to the pleats at the back; the skirts at the back pleated. The skirts extend at the side for a wide square hoop. The pocket openings have a casing for a drawstring. The bodice and sleeves are lined with unbleached linen; the back lining open with worked eyelets threaded with linen tape for adjusting. The sack is made of 7 widths of silk; the skirts are lined with white silk taffeta. The sleeve ruffles are trimmed with white silk bobbin lace. The fronts of the skirts are decorated with padded bands of blue satin, white silk bobbin lace and net, chenille fringe with tassels of flowers made of looped ribbon, feathers and raffia tassels, arranged in a serpentine line The petticoat is made of 3 widths of silk, pleated at the waist and decorated in the same manner as the sack. Both garments were altered for fancy dress in the late 19th century. Darts (now unpicked) were made in the bodice fronts, and the white taffeta ruching around the neck was probably added then. Hooks, eyes and whalebone strips were added to the bodice fronts. The waist pleating of the petticoat was unpicked to lengthen it and 3 panels of the petticoat back were removed. These have been reconstructed for museum display. (en)
