This dress is part of a set of costumes for a production of "Frankenstein". Obviously, this is for one of the female characters in the show, not for the monster!

The dress is in the Empire Style from circa 1820, consisting of a cream, flower-print bodice, satin sleeves and a white detachable neck piece atop a muslin skirt trimmed with white lace.

It comes with a jacket in matching flower-print damask with recycled fur around the neck, lapels and sleeves.

Finally, to complete the costume, there is a hat in the same flower-print material. It has a satin cover and a velvet ribbon to mask the seam between the bowl and the brim. It is embellished with some artificial flowers and a pearl for the ribbon.
