Description
This shirt was taken directly from an original garment. It shows the transition around 1820 of the basic square cut of previous centuries towards a more tailored front using pleats to control the fullness on the bib.
The collar remained very high and the sleeves were still full with a drop shoulder.
Era: 1820-1840.
Care Information
100% Linen. Machine washable at 30 degrees. Do not tumble or use softener.
