Description

Sheer cotton overskirt- ivory background with rose print pattern, c. 1900-1905. Five pieces of sheer rose pattern printed flowers outlined by ivory netting. White satin trim attaches. The sheer material and netting come together in in scalloped pattern, and then have Aegean key pattern in satin. Front is shorter than back. Waist has small band and back hook and eye closure. Pleats go all the way around the garment, making it a bit fitted. At the back are two rows of satin and netting. Looks like it has been modified.
