Today in "is it a dress or is it a layer cake" is this confection from 1872. There are so many layers here, it's a little difficult to tell where one ends and another begins! The listing is from Augusta Auctions, and it indicates that it's a four-piece gown--so indeed, parts of it can be added or taken away. The polonaise overskirt (the puffy part of the hips) is a callback to the 18th century, while the neckline is thoroughly 1870s.

The taffeta layers are edged in what's called double-boxed pinked pleats. The scalloped design is also certainly part of a 1700s revival (not to mention those sleeves!).

I absolutely adore the color of this pink, too. It reminds me of some of the cherry blossoms one might see in spring, especially with the trim.
