Women's Day Dress
Day dress of white cotton woven with a figured design in lilic and open weave stripe. The front bodice is bais cut and darted to give a smoother and tighter fit over the bust, fastening at the back with Dorset thread buttons and a tape at the waist. The skirt was a gored section at each side, but still flat at the waist, and gathered only at the back.
