A woman's sack and petticoat of ivory and white striped silk with brocaded flowers and tobine sprigs in shades of pink and green. The sack is open at the front with robings to the waist and elbow-lengt sleeves with double, scalloped sleeve ruffles. The bodice and sleeves are lined with bleached linen. The back has two, double box pleats stitched at the neckline. The waist seam extends from the front edge to the bodice side seam. The sack is made of 4 widths of silk with a partial width and triangular gore on each side of the front. The hem is faced with white silk taffeta. The sides of the skirt are shaped to fit a square hoop and pleated into the waist seam on either side of the pocket openings. The neck and robings are decorated with a gathered and puffed ruching of silk, edged with a white silk gimp fringe with coloured floss loops and knots. The ruching continues from the robings down the front skirts, increasing in width and arranged in a serpentine ine. The same fringe edges the sleeve ruffles.

The petticoat is made of 5 widths of silk, with a box pleat at centre front and flat pleats at the sides and back. The waist is bound with a white linen tape which forms the ties at the centre back. The hemming of the pocket openings forms a casing for a narrow green silk ribbon, to fit the petticoat over a square hoop. The front is decorated with a deep flounce of silk, edged with the fringe, with bows of fringe-edged silk. Above the hem is a pleated ruching of silk, edged with fringe, arranged in a serpentine line.
