Cream-colored underskirt by an unknown artist. The garment is knee-length. It has a wide waistband and a gathered skirt. There is a horizontal seam across the middle of the skirt. The bottom features a decorative trim with a ruffled edge. The fabric appears to be a lightweight material, possibly cotton or linen. The background is light gray. The skirt is displayed on a brown stand.
