This reminds me of.......
One thing I am sure of is that the armseye of the upper garments will not be
as high as the originals nor the bottoms as capacious . These would grace
any stage quite nicely.
Owning originals that are Not comfortable for actual modern wear, in a
'Costume"situation, these would do quite nicely if done in the usual muslin
of their counterparts.

Is that Victorian? 20th century? Something else? I kind of like the
nightgown.
I think it's meant to be a bad rendition of late Victorian underwear and
nightwear.
