Somewhat obsessed with the cut of this 1740s "tight back" aka English Gown at the Museum of Fine Arts Boston, which says the configuration is altered from a long sack.

I love the large extravagant scale of the brocaded silk and the generous silhouette!

The museum accession no. is 43.1642a-b.

Sehr schöne Farbe und die Stoffknöpfe, sehr schick. Das Innenfutter kann leider nicht mithalten, die Aufschläge reißen es wieder raus. Knappe 4 von 5 ⭐.

Klussi sollte von Hemden auf Westen umsteigen, die sind nicht nur sehr sehr schön sondern modellieren viel besser. 😘
