Summary edit

Description High-waisted dancing dress from 1809, with a slit overskirt -- rather modern-looking in some respects (in a way that most Victorian or eighteenth-century fashions could never be). The woman seems to be wearing hoop earrings which were relatively large by the standards of the time.
