1883 Riding Habit Skirt

Multi-Size - 22-42" Waist

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.
