Dress with Hobble Skirt Dress with staggered skirt, After 1908 the straight line of 'Style Directoire' and 'Style Empire' introduced by Paul Poiret continued in Dutch fashion. A right silhouette was already known in a modest circle here before that time. From 1899 onwards, the 'Association for the Improvement of Women's Clothing' had tried with varying degrees of success to draw attention to the dangers of the wasp waist for health. She promoted wearing high-waisted dresses and ankle-length, straight skirts, which should not, however, impede freedom of movement. Of course, this small association could not prevent the skirts, following the example of Paris between 1908 and 1911, from becoming narrower. Because of this, the fashionable woman could eventually only move forward step by step and the 'stupel frock' was born., Antoinetta Francisca Helena Mulder, Amsterdam, c. 1911 - c. 1912, geheel, kant, corsage, baleinen, l 141.0 cm × l 187.0 cm w 41.0 cm
