Girl's Dress
1886-1888
United States
This dress belonged to Juliette Geneva Hollenback (1881-1917), the youngest daughter of prominent financier and philanthropist John Welles Hollenback (1834-1923). Although the dress appears to be a scaled-down version of an adult's dress, the skirt is attached to the bodice and the closures are uncomplicated, making it easier to dress a child. The fiery color and simple materials are a portent of the woman Juliette would become: an active leader in settlement work.

La Mode nationale, no. 3, 1 février 1886, Paris. Toilette de visite. Bibliothèque nationale de France
Très belle toilette en grosse faille gris ramier. La jupe plissée en éventail; la tunique drapée au tablier qui recouvre presque complètement le jupon, droite derrière et retournée sur le drapé du devant, en revers Louis XIV, formant godets. De larges bandes de broderies perlées et passementées coupent de côté en quilles toutes droites. Le corsage, à pointe et tout uni, n'a d'autres garnitures que le petit revers de la manche et la double bande brodée posée en plastron.
Pour chapeau, une capote Marie Stuart avec passe formant pointe et calotte très haute et froncée. Cette capote, tout en velours gris, est garnie en aigrette d'une colombe. Elle est attachée par des brides très étroites. Le modèle de ce costume si vraiment parisien nous a été donné par l'ancienne maison Chevreux-Aubertot, 7, boulevard Poissonnière.
—
Visiting ensemble. — Very beautiful ensemble in large woodgrain gray faille. The fan-pleated skirt; the tunic draped with the apron which almost completely covers the petticoat, straight behind and turned over the front drape, in Louis XIV reverse, forming godets. Wide bands of beaded and trimmed embroidery cut sideways into straight quilles. The bodice, pointed and plain, has no other trimmings than the small cuff of the sleeve and the double embroidered band placed as a bib.
For hat, a Marie Stuart greatcoat with peaked brim and very high, gathered crown. This hood, all in gray velvet, is trimmed in the egret of a dove. It is attached by very narrow straps. The model for this truly Parisian costume was given to us by the old Chevreux-Aubertot house, 7, boulevard Poissonnière.
