IIRC, it is the one that Janet Arnold talks about in the volume of Patterns of Fashion that covers the 18th century. She describes it as a travelling costume I believe. Someone's whose book is handy will have to confirm it for me however, since my books are still in boxes.

Bjarne,
What season was this dress worn?

Is it for a special occasion?

It is not the same costume, but one of several that are shown on the Danish costume site. But yes, it is called a travelling costume in the Janet Arnold book.
