Dress of red silk machine-made net, with high waist, low neck and short, slightly gathered sleeve, embroidered, England, ca. 1810. Dress of red silk machine-made net, with high waist, low neck and short, slightly gathered sleeves. The bodice is cut with side panels used on the cross, and fastens at the centre back with a narrow red silk ribbon at the waistline. The skirt is cut straight with additional fullness gathered at the centre back. It is hand stitched. The neckband and sleeves and a v-shaped insertion in the bodice front are embroidered with a design of rosebud garlands worked in pink, red and green chenille. This embroidery is repeated at the hem, with a wider trail of roses and rosebuds. Before the dress was donated, it apparently had a red under-dress which was not brought to the Museum because it was 'very perished'. Machine made silk net, embroidered with chenille thread, with silk ribbon, hand-sewn.
