National Gallery of Art

This is a painting of a dress design. The painting depicts a full-length garment with a flowing, loose fit. The design features a pattern of small dots, highlighted seams and edges with a red trim. Red buttons run down the front, and the sleeves end in a ruffle. The hem is also ruffled, showing movement. Above the main depiction is a smaller image of the back view of the dress, showing fabric drape and back train finish. The artwork is reminiscent of late 19th to early 20th-century fashion illustration.
