The jacket opens down the front and the front panels overlap slightly at the bottom. The sleeves are open under the arms, forming a diamond opening which continues along the lower part of the sleeve.
An extra piece of fabric has been attached underneath the sleeve at the end to create a wider opening at the wrist. There is a pronounced flare over the hips and the side seam is open along this curve. Seamed across the shoulders and the sleeves are set at right angles to the bodice.
Main fabric: pink ground with ogival lattice formed by narrow green leaves outlined in yellow; each segment contains an oval of green dots and a central flower head in yellow and metal thread. At the back right hand side, along the edge of the right hip, is a loom or piece end of the woven silk in the form of undecorated pink satin.
