Ankle-length dress worn by a young child, made from light blue watered silk crepe, lined with glazed linen. The skirt is pleated at the waist, and hand sewn to a bodice. The front of the bodice is also pleated. The dress has large, ruffled sleeves, with cuffs which would have fitted tightly just above the elbow. The neckline is very low, which would have exposed the wearer's shoulders, and in the centre of the front is a blue silk bow. A pleated ribbon of blue silk decorates the bodice, beginning at the waistline and encircling the sleeves around the shoulder line, meeting at the back where the dress fastens. The dress is closed with linen tapes, and by a stiff belt of linen and silk with is attached to the dress at its front, and which fastens at the back with two metal hooks and eyes. The front of the belt has an applied blue silk bow.
