"A woman's gown in the English (tight-back) style of pale yellow silk figured in white with narrow vertical stripes, meandering stems and a chequered pattern, and brocaded in floral sprigs with coloured silks. The bodice is open at the front, with elbow-length sleeves and both a narrow pleated cuff and a sleeve ruffle. The bodice and sleeves are lined with linen and edged with a white, red and green fringe made of gimp and floss silk. The central back panel runs from shoulder to hem; two panels on either side of it are gathered and stitched to the bodice at the waist, to make up the rest of the gown skirts.\n\nThe date of the original construction of the gown was possibly 1760s and it was probably made in the English style. In the 1780s, the robings were removed and reconfigured so the bodice closed in front, the bodice relined, and the narrow cuffs added. The additional scalloped cuff was probably part of the original construction and added in the late 19th century for fancy dress. The edging of fringe around the waist, gown front and neckline was probably added at this time, along with the hooks & eyes to close the bodice."@en . . . . . . . . . . . . "1760, Spitalfields" . . .
