A woman's gown made from blue silk damask. The design consists of large flowers and a tree trunk further embellished by a decorative snail. The original construction may have been a sack; there are residual folds at the back. The gown now had short robings, an 'English' or tight back construction and elbow-length sleeves with narrow pleated cuffs. The bodice and sleeves are lined with linen. There are two rows of tapes attached at the bottom of the bodice to fasten; these may not be original. Cuffs of machine-embroidered net have been added in the late 19th century for fancy dress.

The skirts of the gown have narrow, stay-stitched pleats. There is a pocket opening in each side-seam which is seamed. The skirt is lined with plain wool worsted. Areas on the right and left front of the skirts have been replaced with a panel of different, lace-patterned, blue damask with part of a lace pattern.
