Brown Bustle Dress




From the seller:

This is a pretty cotton Victorian top slip and skirt.  The waist is 27" and across the shoulders are 18" and across the bust is 34" .  There is one repair at one of the button holes and two stains that I believe can be washed out.  You can see from the photos on the front of the jacket.  Other than that the integrity of the fabric is very good.

From Me:


I really wish there were more pictures of this dress.   I'm guessing this is 1870's, rather than 1880's.   The bow detail on the front is just too cute!
