Thanks, Dawn. The peek of striped petticoat that you can see on the dummy is a lot more bold. :-)

However, it's not just the petticoat (in fairly broad stripes on the dummy) but in the fashion print it's the whole dress.

I wonder how many others I am currently forgetting due to brain overload.


There's the one at the Met:

I collected photos of dresses from this time period, but that is the only one with stripes that I have.
