Young Clotilde di Savoia wearing a day dress

This photo shows the detailing that went into Victorian dress - Clotilde wears short sleeves that flare out, pagoda style, ending in under-sleeves. The sleeves are trimmed with bands of lace matching the trims on the bodice and skirt. Her bodice has a vee-shaped trim edged with lace where a bertha would go on an evening dress that appears to be parted by a vertical strip of buttons.
