the problem with autism is sometimes you want to do something (brave) but you need someone to gently walk you through each step so you know what will happen. and people don’t like doing that

Girl's Dress

1886-1888

United States

This dress belonged to Juliette Geneva Hollenback (1881-1917), the youngest daughter of prominent financier and philanthropist John Welles Hollenback (1834-1923). Although the dress appears to be a scaled-down version of an adult's dress, the skirt is attached to the bodice and the closures are uncomplicated, making it easier to dress a child. The fiery color and simple materials are a portent of the woman Juliette would become: an active leader in settlement work.

Girl's Dress

c.1885

United States

This is an example of a very typical girl's party dress for the period. Alternating stripes of sheer material was a prominent configuration at the time for both women's and girl's dresses. It is obvious that this dress was made with a great deal of detail and thought, which can be seen in the double ruffles of the underdress sleeves as well as the overdress sleeves, and the multiple ruffles of the skirt and the underskirt. The low bustle effect in back is appropriate for a young girl, and the long-waisted silhouette was typical of the time. The interior ties of the skirt create more of a bustle effect.
