This is an original Past Patterns design.
★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★
The original round dress, the dress pattern was designed around, was sewn by hand. On that dress, the bodice laps left over right. This is considered masculine today but was of no consequence in the mid-nineteenth century.

The original skirt was constructed of five 24 inch panels cut selvage to selvage. Work dresses of the 1850’s generally had hem widths between 96 inches to 130 inches.

The stays which can be worn under the round dress for a nineteenth-century silhouette are item#0703, the 1863 lightly boned stay, item#0708, the 1845-1870 light boned stay and item#0705, 1830-1860 serviceable stays with no boning.

Since 1984 more research has shown undersleeves and a wristband for the sleeves, white wool with a 1inch wide red rose print, and wide ribbon outlining the yoke.
Instructions for an undersleeve are included at the end.
The ribbon outlining the yoke was seen on a daguerreotype from circa 1849.
