Inspiration to this design I have found from a 1785s dress made of block printed cotton fabric. The Original fabric was made in England for the export market.

The chosen fabric type for a dress could be Cotton Linen or cotton Satin, depending of the dress type, but even Cotton Voile Open dress would be nice.

 The Chosen Name is Catharina Juliana Eckerman

She was a Countess mistress, alleged spy. A scandal-ridden holding lady to Gustaf III's closest man, Carl Sparre. She was suspected of spying on Russian envoys.

Julie Ekerman was born in 1765 in Stockholm, in a family with a solid bourgeois background in Östergötland's power elite. On both her mother's and father's side, she descended from influential people in the so-called magistrate corps, which consisted of mayors and other royally appointed state representatives. Her father Bengt Edvard Ekerman, however, chose another path and made a career in the army. Modern Catharina Ahlgren eventually became a translator and editor of the magazine Brefwäxling, where she, among other things, gives voice to ideas about women's rights in marriage.
