Super witchy ensemble circa 1890s, a bodice and skirt or petticoat.
Fabric is bombazine, lined with glazed cotton.
Bodice has large leg o' mutton sleeves and a dramatic collar. Fully boned, hook and eye closures down the center front, peplum waist.
Skirt is a heavy petticoat of the same fabric. Constructed like a petticoat but may have been worn as a outer-garment rather than an undergarment, I'm not quite certain.
Hand and machine sewn.

30" bust
24" max waist

+++ Condition +++
Overall good condition, especially considering age. Some minor flaws to note:
- Missing one hook closure from the center front
- Thread "eye" closure to accompany hook on crossover closure on front is broken
- A few discolorations on the bodice
- Wear to the waistband of petticoat
- Missing petticoat closure
- Some wear around the hem of petticoat
- Seam opening in petticoat lining
- A few scattered pinholes
- Some boning peeking out of channels

Wearable with care but also would be an idea study or display piece.
