Rust colored linen bodice and skirt, fitted at the wasit, 3/4 length sleeves, front closure with large rectangle gold glass buttons, pleated linen cuffs with cream lace insets with matching lace collar, ruching in back at center back to make room for bustle. Rust colored skirt, floor length, ruching and vertical gathers thoughout front with rows of smocking just above hem, pocket, purple silk taffeta trim applied as decoration at cuffs and on front of bodice (appears to have some dry rotting on silk trim) this trim could have been added later.
