Description:
Kosome—a historic figure who settled in Hawaii in 1859 and became a schoolteacher—wears an elaborate dress that epitomizes the fine sewing of late Victorian nineteenth-century dress, where attention to complex folds and elaborate lace trim instead defined high fashion in nineteenth-century America.
