The dress is inspired by the sailor suit, and the jacket, which is hip-length, has a square collar with scarf ends. There are no patch pockets on the pleated basque. The skirt is gored with a straight panel at the back, gathered at the waist. The over-skirt is pointed with patch pockets and a pocket in the seam. There is also a belt trimmed with a stitched bow with long ends. The outfit is unlined. This is a jaunty, sensible and comfortable though decorative seaside outfit of a kind which rarely survives.
