It is believed that this dress was made for a teenage girl, and it is similar in style to dresses designed for ladies at the end of the Edwardian period. Details such as the lace trimmed cuffs and matching collar with elongated points and the black satin waistband add interest to a simple, straighter style, and moves away from the 'S' bend silhouette that was in vogue a few years earlier.
