Summary
| Description | English: "Dress worn by Caroline Herschel. Caroline Herschel was by all accounts an exceptionally petite lady and this could well have been due to her suffering illnesses such as smallpox and scarlet fever during childhood. The dress on display in the drawing room of the museum was worn and probably made by Caroline, and its simple design reflects the simple tastes and unassuming nature of this remarkable woman. It is made of white muslin, with a pale blue flower decoration, and has a cross-over boudice and lacy trim at the long sleeves. The dress dates to the last decade of the 18th century, so Caroline would probably have been in her forties when she wore it. The pleats and seams are all hand stitched and it has a couple of small patches, which are well disguised." At the William Herschel Museum, Bath. | ||
