The prototype for this delightfully feminine gown bespeaks the humblest of origins. "49 Cents Buys this Muslin Gown," boasted the 1902 edition of the couturier to rural America, the Sears, Roebuck Catalog. Several pages of style and fabric variations (all white) attest to its popularity, and the country lady anxiously awaited the arrival of her dream gown.

View A has a ruffled neckline and is cut just below the knee.
View B features a wide triangular ruffled collar and the traditional ankle length.

Both views are full and flowing, with three deep box pleats in back; fronts gather into a gently rounded, ruffled bodice yoke. Side seam godets add a slight flare. Both are closely fitted to the upper body with a deep buttoned opening at left front. Long puffed sleeves are finished with slip-over wrist bands and ruffles which fall gracefully over the hands.

Today, creative choice of fabrics makes this gown equally lovely for street wear in bright colors and your favorite belt, or in soft fabrics for slumber.
