Rare and very elegant street or walking dress from Italy, ca. 1910. Made of blue linen. The jacket has a pointed collar. Silk collar back. Double row of buttons at the front. Buttons on the cuffs. Swallow tail of the jacket. Linend with blue silk. The skirt is a special feature. It is a so-called "high waist skirt", an underbust skirt. As the name suggests, it is pulled up to under the bust. It is tailored tightly and is held in place by the hips. The skirt has a wide band inside the waistband closure that gives it extra stability. Decorative buttons on the front and back. Small train. The ensemble is in very good condition. A small missing part in the collar. Discreet traces of wear. Missing underskirt. A few stains on the jacket silk lining. Tears in the inner lining. Breast insert, brooch and furs are not included.
