It's cut as a Montrose, but it opens from the left rather than the right, as if it was made for a woman (or, I suppose, a chap who's had his left hand badly damaged).
The kilt/skirt is fringed on the right like a man's kilt, but is VERY long, even for the high rise of a military kilt. And I don't know if I've ever seen a plaid sewn into a separate waistband/belt before.
It's definitely not a military uniform, but might be either some dancer's kit or even an odd fancy-dress costume (although it looks too well made for that).
I don't think I've ever seen a woman wear a jabot, either.
I hope someone with more experience comes along, I'm fascinated to see what this truly is.
