A dress fit for a princess!

When I was young I had a kilt which I used to wear on a Sunday but I would have loved a silk dress (made in the 1860s) like this for special occasions. This is one of the exhibits in the Glasgow Art Galleries.  

'Queen Victoria started a fashion when she dressed her children in tartan.  The little girl who wore this dress liked it so much that it was lengthened when she grew.'

Thanks to fellow Blipper Helpet57 for her most informative tour of the galleries.  So much to see and so much to learn!
