English description, ready for a prompt
a 1760s French women's robe à la française: an open sky blue silk gown with a small woven floral pattern, worn over side hoops (panniers) that make the skirt very wide at the hips and flat at the front and back, two broad box pleats (Watteau pleats) falling loose from the back neckline all the way to the floor-length hem, a stiff triangular stomacher at the centre front decorated with a ladder of pink ribbon bows, the gown open at the front over a matching petticoat, fitted elbow-length sleeves ending in tiered white lace ruffles (engageantes), and ruched self-fabric trim edging the front opening
