Dress

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a white, short, sleeveless dress with a square neckline and a full skirt. The dress is made of a lightweight fabric, possibly cotton or linen. It has a fitted bodice with a gathered waist and a full, flared skirt that falls above the knees. The dress features multiple layers of ruffles on the skirt and a ruffled trim around the neckline and armholes. There are two long ties on either side of the bodice, which appear to be used for fastening or adjusting the fit. The background of the image is dark gray or black. Title: "Dress". Artist unknown.
