1790s Robe a L'Anglaise. I call this one the "Revolution Dress" from the Kyoto Fashion Institute. Cream silk taffetta, with a zone/turque-like front and button closure. Black lace decorates the front of the bodice and the cuffs, the latter lacing with wine-colored ribbons. The sash sports a metal buckle with a painted porcelain center, on a striped silk sash. 16th Century, Retro Mode, Costume Institute
