Day dresses
Description
Two day dresses with long sleeves and full skirts that are starting to show the shifting of the skirt's shape from conical to bustled. The left woman has a bodice with surplice style trim, a lace jabot, a ribbon belt, and a layered skirt with the top layer pulled up over the hips in a polonaise style. The right dress has a full skirt and matching cape with a rosette in centerback and fringe trim. The hairstyles are upswept with either a bonnet or a lace cap and both have ribbon trim.
