1883 Riding Habit Skirt
This riding skirt was worn while riding sidesaddle,
and is historically correct for 1880-1885. It is shorter on the left
hand side, longer on the right hand side, and shaped to fit over the
right knee. When in the saddle, the hem should hang level front to
back. For walking, the right knee has a loop which attaches to a
button at the center back. When looped up the skirt becomes floor
length all around, and drapes prettily on the right hip. Combine with
TV464 for a very nice tailored looking habit, or any other bodice of
the same fabric. Multi-sized 22-42" waist included in pattern.
Approximate yardage: fabric 60" wide-3 yards all sizes.
$21.00
