Underskirt

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black underskirt with ruffled hem. Long, dark green or black skirt with a smooth waistband and a gathered, flowing design. The skirt is primarily smooth and dark-colored at the top, transitioning to a black, ruffled section at the bottom. The ruffles are layered, creating a textured, tiered effect. The skirt appears to be made of a shiny fabric, possibly satin or silk. It is displayed on a mannequin or stand, with a plain white background. Title: Underskirt. Artist unknown.
