Chemisette
The
chemisette is a piece worn under the dress or on the dress and
fills low necklines of regency dresses. This chemisette trimmed
with a treble mushroom-pleated frill at the neck is made of
cotton muslin according to the extant piece from collections
from the Snowshill Manor, England, c. 1800 – 1825 (J. Arnold,
Patterns of Fashion 1). |
