For the bodice inset, sleeve ruffles and skirt is also a printed broadcloth. Which is a floral pattern. The dress is fully lined. The lattice pattern for the bodice inset a 7/8" ribbon, which was also used for around the neck and above the sleeve ruffles. For the bows a periwinkle color 1/4" was used.
