The bodice's collar and front panel is constructed with many hook and eyes closure. Also has a inner bodice with hook and eye closures. The fabric is a fine printed silk satin embellished with green velvet stripes sewn on netting that pick up the light and gives the garment a rich glow and texture.

The bodice closes in front with many small hook and eyes. The high (unboned) collar and sleeves are trimmed with intricate ecru lace. There are gathering ruched on the sleeves.
