Description |
Two-piece brown dress with separate brown belt and green velvet neckband. Mutton sleeve top has brown lace trim around shoulders back & front and over the white lace cuffs. It has a high collar of narrow pleats. Pleated belt has three stays & green trim above hooks. Long skirt has a front panel of narrow pleats and a wide bottom ruffle with shirred top edge and ruched bottom edge. [The dress probably belonged to Nettie Naylor Mann, wife of Frank Mann, Brownton, and grandmother of donor Shirley Mann Schramm. It may have been Nettie's wedding dress when she married Frank Mann on August 15, 1894. Nettie was born July 25, 1866 and died March 11, 1923. Frank came to Brownton in 1892 and Nettie in 1894 from Steele County, Minnesota.] |
