Robe à la française

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The dress is a long, full gown with a floral pattern. The dress has long sleeves and a square neckline. The bodice is fitted, with a corseted front and a full skirt that falls to the floor. There are multiple layers of gathered and ruffled fabric creating a voluminous effect on the skirt and sleeves. The floral pattern features pink flowers, green leaves, and brown stems on a beige background. The dress appears to be made of silk or satin fabric. Robe à la française by Rose Bertin.
