Lovely antique folk costume, likely dating from around the 1910s to 1920s, though it could be a bit earlier. 

Consists of a bodice and skirt. A blouse would be worn underneath the bodice. Bodice has buttons on the front around which a cord can be laced. I will include a black waxed cotton cord (not original to the costume). 

Skirt has hook and eye closures at the waist. Bodice has boning in the front. There are boning channels at the back but they are empty. 

+++ Measurements +++

Likely best for a medium-large. 

Skirt measures 35" waist and 33-35" length (a bit longer in the back)

Bodice measured fully closed, but would be worn with a gap, so there is an allowance of 3-5" 

33" bust

32" waist

19" length

+++ Condition +++

Fair condition with several flaws, but still sturdy and wearable. The buttons on the bodice are mismatched. Large stain (but somewhat faint) on the skirt and some stains in the lining of the bodice. Waistband of the skirt has been repaired. Back seam of skirt is held together by two safety pins where it has come undone.
