Robe à la française
1750s; Altered 1780s & Late 19th Century
France & England
The ensemble was probably made as a sack and petticoat in the 1750s. In the 1780s, the sack was updated in style. A waist seam was probably added, the skirts reconfigured, and sleeve ruffles removed. The half-stomachers were added at this time and the bodice fronts relined. The back lacing was reconfigured and more eyelets worked.
The ensemble was altered for fancy dress in the late 19th century. Hooks and eyes were added to the bodice stomacher fronts and machine-lace ruffles to the sleeves. The petticoat may have been unpicked at this point.
The petticoat was gathered onto a cotton band after acquisition for Museum display. (V&A)
Victoria & Albert Museum (Accession Number: CIRC.157-1920)
