About MeBrown cotton one-piece dress cut in the "princess line". The bodice is tight and slim fitting with long narrow tight sleeves. Across the lining of the skirt there are a series of tapes which tie to create fullness and a bustle effect at the back.

The dress was worn by Mrs Margaret Christie (nee Lees) who lived at Newtonhill.
