This ensemble was in relatively good condition, except the overskirt was missing.  Only fragments caught in the seams were left of the chenille textured skirt that would have matched the textured bodice and covered the cotton muslin seen on the sides in the "before treatment" picture.  OTC created a pattern of the missing overskirt (based on the underskirt) and prepared custom dyed-to-match silk satin to approximate the shade of the lost material.  As an additional option for display, a second overskirt was prepared of silk digitally printed with a repeating photograph of the chenille texture fabric from the bodice.  The second overskirt can be fitted over the conserved skirt, another way of visually simulating the lost textured overskirt.
