The trim is almost certainly the collar point hanging over. You see that
in pictures too.
I realize that we have *no* evidance whatsoever, but a great many of
these gowns (when you can see the back that is) have this long collar
point hanging over the belt -- it is *possible* that it was used as
some sort of belt loop?
