Chemisette of white cotton with ruffled collar. Body is short, with no method of fastening under arms; front edges are very narrowly hemmed (1/16") and whipped to a length of cotton net, which is then enclosed in a doubled length of cotton, giving the impression of lace insertion. Back has odd trapezoidal pieces on either side of bottom, resulting in upward-pointing seams. Wide, rounded collar with whip-gathered ruffle around edge.
