Day dresses for different generations

Day dresses for different generations. The woman's dress consists of a simple, fitted bodice with a fold-over collar, bow; long, fitted sleeves with cuffs and shoulder extensions, a belted waist, and a full skirt. The dress has an asymmetrical front opening that begins at the collar and extends down the skirt. The young girl has a loosely fitted coat with full sleeves and a wide collar over a matching full skirt worn with a Eugenie hat. The young child is wearing a dress with a simple collar, bow tie, full sleeves and a heavily trimmed jacket that flairs out over the hips and leads to a full, but shorter skirt worn over pantalets with stockings and button-top boots.
