One can tell that this dress is of the early 20th century due to the extreme s-curve that is pushing her chest forward and her hips backwards. (This photo is not in color becuase it was actually taken in the early 20th century. I felt it would more accurately show the shape of the time.)

This woman is wearing a Hobble Skirt. This can be identified by the narrowness from the knees down. This seriously hindered a woman’s ability to walk, thus making them hobble.
