Clothing/Dress/Costume
Entirely hand-stitched day bodice made of brown twilled cotton (Microscope ID). Lined with unbleached glazed plain weave cotton or linen. Sleeveless. Generous rounded collar with nice standing effect. Waistband. No bust darts. Concealed hooks and eyes closure; the hooks are set closer to the center front in the middle so as to provide a little bust room (for a larger waist or maternity wear).
